So, here is my situation. I have a nice porcelain and silver cap on my tooth. Actually, I have several. But this story only deals with one. So, my cap came loose during an exceptionally aggressive flossing session several months ago. It popped off the tooth. I put it back in and it fit so tightly, that I forgot about going to the dentist and getting it glued back in (or whatever they use).

Fast forward to this morning. I'm eating this wonderful gluten free vanilla cupcake. Then, on the second bite, I notice there is a massive space in my mouth. Apparently, the cap came loose on the bite and I swallowed it. Otherwise, I would have noticed it missing on the first bite.

So, here is my dilemma. Do I go to the dentist and have a new crown made? That shit is expensive anymore. Or, do I monitor my feces for several days, slice it up, pull out the old cap when I find it, and find some way to clean and sterilize it.

What would you do?

I was eating some leftover Chinese a couple months ago and had one of mine come off. Was the first time, so freaked me out. Still had the spike in it and everything

I was talking with my dentist before and he mentioned the spike and said it was a good thing I hadn't swallowed it "but at least you would've known when it came out."

I've wondered since then what I'd have done if I swallowed it.

Glad you have to make that decision and not me.

You can't fool me, man! I know there is no spike. When it came out, I carefully inspected it, because I was wondering how much I could get for the silver in it.

Wait a sec! You just gave me a great idea! I'll borrow my neighbors metal detector and check after each poop. That way, I don't have to needlessly chop up a bunch of crap!

Thanks man!

Probably looking at $1500-2000 to replace right? That’s high enough to reuse. But if I ever meet you face to face, I’m going to tell you your breath smells like shit, even if it don’t.

Well. I took a big dump last night. But I couldn't bring myself to pull crap out of the toilet and start slicing it up just to put something inside of it back in my mouth. Besides, the smell was rather horrendous! As I have been known to say, "That shit ain't right, man!"

I felt rather sick about it, though. It was hard for me to enjoy the dump the way I normally do thinking about all that money going down the toilet.

I think I will just have all the teeth in my head pulled and get dentures. At least I wouldn't be swallowing all of those bastards!

Ass breath is dangerous

Yep. Worked for me:

Pay an illegal immigrant $100 to go through my poo.

I stopped at gluten free vanilla cupcake.

This reminds me of the Chuck Palahniuk book "Rant" where Rant's mother would put nuts and bolts in everything she cooked to make her family eat slow enough to enjoy her cooking.

"Butt breath". It's much more polite.

Never heard of anyone losing a crown on a regular cupcake.  You know they're supposed to be soft, right?

I'll put you in touch with my mother. I swallowed a dime when I was a toddler, and she still has it.

On the off chance that I would retrieve such an item (say it showed up sticking out of a log like a kernel of corn and was "easily retrievable", etc.), exactly how would one go about sterilizing such an item? Boiling for 10 minutes?

I would think boiling for 10 minutes, and then maybe soaking in some rubbing alcohol should take care of it.  But just think about the anxiety the first time you pop that "kernel" back in place.  

Items needed to clean an ass tooth:

Fire truck.
Kryptonite.
Gasoline
Positive attitude.
