Serious!
I don't have that many teeth left to begin with, and while munching on a Reese peanut butter cup, it...simply fell out!

(115,683 posts)I only got a quarter per tooth in 1955, but in today's dollars that should be a little over $2.00.

(34,051 posts)i HATE teeth issues and it seems whenever something happens it happens just before or on a holiday!
honestly, i'm really sorry to hear this.
hope there is no pain.
put some gauze on the spot to help it clot and then be careful--no straws, etc. because you don't want to have a "dry socket"
god! i HATE it when teeth go wrong!

For about a year, I noticed what appeared to be bits of filling appearing in my mouth. Had no idea where it was coming from. (Mouth full of dental work)
I woke up and there was big gaping hole where a tooth had been. Now all my molars are capped.
