Hi All
Just clobbered a Moeller tooth last night eating ribs. I crouched a bone and the whole top of my tooth came off. Mostly fillings but I think the tooth is a goner. Won't know until I get in touch with my dentist and see what he has to say. Luckily does not hurt much right now, but that could change. Hope the dentist is in on Monday so he can take a look.

Oh crap . Ouch . Hope all goes well . Doesn't sound fun.
I cracked one earlier this fall, they were able to "fix" it but it is now about useless. I am planning a canal and cap after the first of the year.
if you can't get in quick and it starts to hurt, try oil of cloves on the tooth, kills the pain pretty good for a few hours.
good luck Lee.
Well got to see the dentist today and the tooth is a goner. Broke the sucker right down the middle. Going to have it out. Not sure how much this will cost but I think in the ballpark of $150 to $300. Not nice but the Health Saving Account I have will cover it.

Update 12/24/14 will have the tooth out on New Years Eve.
