Beware of rice cakes.......!

I've also been warned about granary bread!

Our dentist reckons that granary bread is the worst, though DH has broken teeth on tiny pebbles in lentils - but please don't imagine we have a healthy wholefood diet, this was in a take away curry!

add chickpeas to the list - I thought checking dried chickpeas for stones before cooking them had gone out since the 70s, but last week I was proved wrong. told supermarket helpline that it felt as tho I'd been playing russian roulette with my poor old gnashers ( tho no actual damage occurred ). should the packaging not have a warning flash on the front about checking the contents ?

Seeded bread has provided lots of work for my dentist over the years. I am now extremely wary of biting down hard on any food these days in case it has expensive consequences.

Seeded bread and I are sworn enemies-nearly suffered a premature end after choking on a seed! Thank goodness for first aid trained Ds.

After breastfeeding my DD for four years (she's now 26) it was all downhill for my teeth with bits cracking off on a regular basis. Embarrassingly enough after second front tooth breaking off at gum(no pain surprisingly) the regular drug addict customers at work were extremely friendly as it seemed I'd joined their no teeth club! There's a silver lining to every misfortune. But I could fill several pages of horror about my teeth. Good luck with yours x

I wondered what this post was going to be about, "beware of rice cakes", visions of "killer rice cakes" !!! - sorry just my sense of humour.

I broke a front tooth on a crispy bit of potato from the top of a hotpot - my favourite bit. Lost other front tooth biting into a soft egg mayonaise roll, didn't realise straight away & didn't find tooth, tooth was slightly loose but ........

Haven't been able to bite apples for years now so I always cut all fruit up (easier)

Madmartha, if you can take your bridge out you should go back to the dentist and get it recemented.

having read about all the dangerous foods so far, I'm sticking to custard --- or does someone know better ?

I now feel justified buying a nutribullet.

Thought the same thing Suzied or could just take vit supplements washed down with large amounts of red wine.

I once nearly choked on a multivitamin tablet.

To add, beware of Toblerone. I broke a tooth eating one. The trouble is I still love them. Another time broke a tooth eating pizza!
