Hey guys.
No real new issues outside of my OCD going crazy (its always way worse in the fall and winter for some unknown reason) but here it goes
When i was around 8 years old i slighly chipped a front top central incisor. Not enough to need a filling or any work done other then a enamel smoothing
5 years ago i chipped the smaller tooth next to it when i was elbowed in the face durring a game of basketball. Again no work needed other then a smoothing.
In that injury i also slighly chipped a lower incisor as well. Same thing no work needed but that tooth was sore for a bit afterwards but went away. Its still alive so it dident die and it was more likely a sprained liginent.
Havent had any issues with physical pain or biting etc. been to multiple checkups and cleanings everythings fine.
As im suffering from ocd badly i keep having this thought in my head that what if those chipped teeth cracked beneath the surface and any day now they will snap off and or ill get that pain i had when i chewed when i had 2 cracked molars as a kid.
IF that was true there would have been evidence of this on a xray or something in the past 5 plus years correct?
Is it even physically possable that when the teeth chipped the energy traveled from the point of impact (the chip) down the root and broke under the gum and just the jawbone is holding it in place?
If that was the case an xray or some kind of symptoms would have shown that right?
Its this constant intrusive thought thats driving me insane and i figure ask the pros and get it out of my head with sound logic and experience once and for all.
