Backstory: when DH was 10 he got in the face with a baseball bat. It knocked out his two top front teeth. They were able to put one back, but not the other. He has to get braces before he can get an implant. He has been wearing a retainer with a fake tooth. Fast forward to last weekend. His tooth that had been put back was starting to bother him and had become very sensitive to temperatures. On Monday he went to dentist and they informed him that it had fractured past the gum line and so he got it pulled today. He is so depressed now because both his teeth are now missing and I can't do anything about it.
Re: Poor DH
He can eventually but he has to go through braces first, and he has to wait a couple months first. He had braces when he was a kid for this reason, but the person didn't leave a wide enough gap for the implants, so he has to do it again.
