One child chips a front tooth on the edge of the pool. An adult wakes up with a cracked molar and swelling that was not there the night before. A grandparent loses a crown while chewing bread and assumes it can wait, only to find that the exposed tooth becomes sharply sensitive by evening. Those moments
