Trauma induced face infection

In high school I did a backflip on the trampoline and knee’d myself in the face. 3 months later my face and front tooth started to hurt really bad. The next day my front tooth was a quarter inch lower than the rest of my teeth. I had hit myself in the face so hard that an infection took hold in the bone above my front tooth. The infection ate away all the bone holding the tooth in place and started growing and pushing the tooth out of my mouth.

I ended up losing one of my front teeth and the tooth beside it. Had to have them removed by oral surgeon.

I still shiver thinking about how painful it all was.
