Sometimes the dentist is able to reattach the portion of tooth that broke off, so you should save it if you can. Take the shard and put it in a container with milk or saliva to keep it from rotting. Then bring it with you when you visit the dentist. You should never try to reattach the portion of tooth yourself. Not only will this not work without proper equipment, but you'll cause severe pain for yourself if you poke an exposed nerve. Your mouth is full of bacteria, and any injuries can get infected easily. To help stave off infection, rinse your mouth with a salt water solution when you know you've broken a tooth. Mix 1 tsp of salt into 1 cup of warm water. Swish the mixture around your mouth for 30 to 60 seconds.Concentrate on the injured area. Be sure not to swallow any of the mixture. Repeat this rinse after meals. If you've damaged your tooth badly, the pain can be severe. You can treat it with OTC pain relievers until you go to the dentist and get it fixed. Ibuprofen products like Motrin and Advil are usually preferred over acetaminophen because ibuprofen also reduces swelling in addition to treating pain. But if ibuprofen isn't available, take an acetaminophen product like Tylenol. Sometimes a chip in the tooth will produce a jagged edge that could cut your tongue or gums. To prevent damage to your mouth, cover the edge with dental wax. You an purchase this in the oral care aisle of most pharmacies. Alternatively, you could also cover the edge with a piece of sugar-free chewing gum. It's possible that you won't be able to see your dentist for several days after you crack your tooth. In this case, you'll have to eat before your appointment. Take the following measures to reduce pain and prevent further damage when eating. Stick with soft foods. The cracked tooth is weakened and susceptible to further damage. Hard foods could make the crack worse and cause pain. Opt for soft foods like pudding, soup, and oatmeal until your doctor performs the necessary work. Don't eat anything especially hot or cold. The cracked tooth will be sensitive to extreme temperatures, and very cold or hot foods can cause pain. Serve food at room temperature to avoid any problems. Try to eat on the unaffected side of your mouth. Any chewing can cause pain and further damage, so if possible you should avoid chewing with the cracked tooth.

In-text citations typically are provided in parentheses after the information from that reference that you've included in your paper. Start the in-text citation with the last name of the author. You don't need to include initials with in-text citations, unless necessary to distinguish between two authors with the same last name who published in the same year. If there is more than one author, separate their names with commas. Use an ampersand before the last name listed in parenthetical citations. For example: "(Winken, Blinken, & Nod, 1992)." Put a comma after the year, then write "p." if the information appears on a single page or "pp." if it appears on multiple pages or a range of pages. Finish with the page number, then add a period after the closing parentheses. For instance: "(Simpson, 1988, p. 76)." Alternatively: "(Simpson, 1988, p. 76; Cleaver, 1992, pp. 103-119)." Sometimes your writing flows better if you name the author of the work in your text directly in your sentence. When you do this, you don't need to follow up with a parenthetical citation. If you have the author's name in the text of the sentence, simply put the date of publication (or writing) in parentheses after the author's name. If there is more than 1 author, use the word "and" rather than an ampersand if their names appear in the text. For example: "According to Simpson (1988), dogs don't dream. However, the work of Winken, Blinken, and Nod (1992) provides evidence that they do."

Bottling up your feelings about the toxic relationship lets the other person win because it keeps you isolated. Open up about what happened and how you are feeling about everything. Confide in a close friend or family member. Tell them how you are feeling and seek comfort. If you have specific requests about how they can support you, let them know. To truly move on and heal from a toxic relationship, you must open your heart to positive, healthy relationships. Look over your existing connection and find ways to deepen your relationship with people who make you feel good. You might also make new friends by joining a club or organization or participating in a support group. Remember that it is okay to give yourself some time to heal. Don't jump right back into dating until you feel ready. You probably poured a lot of yourself into the toxic relationship. Now is the time to pour all that love and compassion back into yourself. Build a self-care routine that focuses on nurturing your mind, body and spirit. Treat yourself to healthy, nutritious meals. Do soothing exercises like yoga or expressive dance. Take warm baths with scented oils or bubbles. Or take long walks in nature. You might also heal and care for yourself by writing your thoughts and feelings about the experience in a journal. Taking a trip can also be a great way to take care of yourself. It will give you a change of scenery and routine. Consider visiting a friend who lives in a different city. If you found yourself in a toxic relationship, you may have an insecurely attached relational style that stems from childhood. This style may have made it hard for you to see toxic behavior for what they were. In therapy, you can become conscious of how childhood experiences impact your current relationships and start to heal those wounds. Ask your family doctor to recommend a professional therapist in your area.
