The dentist basically shoved the teeth back into place and stitched them in - saying I was young enough that either they'd re-root or something - OR the teeth would eventually fuse to the bone...
Neither happened apparently, and recent x-rays show that the roots are lessening....
This scares the **** out of me - I've always been über sensetive about my front teeth, and afraid of losing them - but at least I know now that there are some good dental alternatives out there....

honey you just typed up my worst nightmare. I have jumped out of bed in the middle of the night. Most the times it involves my boss being out of town and no way to fix them

I guess when I'm sleeping, i don't take into consideration that I could fix them myself (temporarily at least)

so your roots are resorbing?? that is tragic, but it happens. Implants are a wonderful option!! They are pricey in the beginning, but ****, you never have to have them replaced, you can't get a cavity, and they will never give you any pain!!

good luck-and if you have any questions-you know I love this ****...ahhaha
