Last night Dave played ball at Ezell. He was suppose to play in a double header but had a little mishap in the first game. He has just turned this beautiful double play and was down fixing to try for another one when the ball took an awful hop and hit him in his mouth.
As you can see it broke his top tooth off and pushed his 2 bottom teeth backward. Busted his lip, blood was everywhere but, thankfully no stitches!!
We went to his dentist this morning and his top tooth will have a root canal on the 16th of June. Then will be capped and sometime around age 20 will have a crown put on after he is through growing. The bottom 2, after x-rays show no damage to bone or nerve, Thank The Lord! Said that the force of his tongue will push the teeth back forward in time. Might in his 20's have problems with them and will deal with it at that point. This could have been worse. I told Tiff this morning if Drew plays baseball, we will need to make him wear a mouth piece at an early age. I feel if Dave had been wearing one at least his teeth would have not gotten broken.
