There I was eating a nice hot curry for lunch, when... crunch! I bit into something hard. Only it wasn't a foreign body in the curry - it was a bit of my own tooth which had detached itself. Arrrrhhh.

Its just a corner point of a molar and it does not hurt, but it sure is annoying. My tongue just seeks out the jagged edges. It means a visit to the dentist and the pain of paying his bill.

This is the second one this year and there will be more over the next few years - there are a number of hairline cracks in my teeth which could just let go. It may be that my "go to cons" fund may end up being spent on crowns instead. *sigh*
