Dratted Toffee :=(

[sunny-dave]

Allowed my sweet tooth to get the better of me & stuffed a Cadburys Chocolate Eclair in my mouth - well it looked lonely in the bowl on the conference room table.

I didn't remember them having crunchy bits in ... but that turned out to be the filling that it had just removed :+(

No pain - just a very sharp edge now busy destroying my tongue.

Dentist - Monday Morning .... wonderful :((

[B00]

oh no!

That'd be my worst nightmare.

:-(

nip along to boots and get a dental filler - otherwise you will shred your tongue!

its brill as an emergency filler

[rockyracoon]

Oh crap, that's why I don't eat those wonderful things anymore. I do fancy one now though.

[tonyav]

Can't you get an appointment before Monday, dave.

[EcclesCake]

Ouchy......

[sunny-dave]

I think I may have some at home in the cupboard - in my foreign travel kit.

If not will be at Boots tomorrow morning ...

That happend to me a couple of weeks ago, only I thought it was a bit of tooth that came off and I chucked it in the bin, turned out it was an old crown (don't even remember having it done!) and if I hadn't thrown it away the dentist could have just glued it back on, instead I had to pay £209 for a new crown !!!

[B00]

How permanent can those temporary fillings be?

[gness]

Nail file? :-(

Where do you work where you get chocolate in the conference room? We got zilch.

[sunny-dave]

Could have got one on Friday, but not with my usual chap - wouldn't trust anyone else (unless in agony) ...

[sunny-dave]

Temp fillings can work B00 - but don't usually survive very long - last time this happened I just wodged a bit of chewing gum against the sharp edge whenever it got irritating.

[friedgreentomato]

Depends on how well you pack it in Boo

[sunny-dave]

Wolf - it was an NHS meeting - but at a local Church Centre - I think they booby trapped the toffees for us heathens :)

[wolf63]

NHS - wasting our money.

I was civil service - if the meeting was long enough we got tea and biccies but that was the limit.

[sunny-dave]

I was amazed - haven't had so much as a biccy from the NHS for years - I think the sweeties must have been left over from a previous church meeting ...

[mrs_overall]

Dave, the solution is simple. When you fancy a toffee, take your teeth out first.

[sunny-dave]

kaboom ... tish :)

[Tilly2]

The very same thing happened to me Dave. It was also a Cadbury's Chocolate Eclair. Dreadful things. Should be renamed Cadbury's Chocolate Extractors.

*How permanent can those temporary fillings be? *

my mates used them and she said they were rubbish.... they lasted a day or so at most.... she got sick of it falling out and having to do it again...
