@Quinn
So this one reminds me that I lost both my front teeth by hitting myself (or I guess allowing myself to be hit?) in the face. And, btw, one of these was roughly 2nd grade. I was a slow tooth-loser, so don't feel bad, Quinn!

Tooth 1:
I shared a room with my brother. We had a bunk bed. I had one of those clip-on lamps. The tooth had been loose for a while already.
I dropped something between the bed and the wall and after leaning down to grope around for a while to grab it, I finally lean back up, turn, and WHAM hit my face right on the lamp. Minute later, feel something (lot of something) in my mouth, go in the bathroom, and promptly spit out the tooth and some blood into the sink.

Tooth 2:
Some months later, at a park. Running around a playground, during the twilight hour. I go to clamber under a section of the play area. I hit my face on it instead because it was that perfect layer of not-quite-dark that my depth perception was fucked. Just full on WHANG and I've got a face full of wood chips. Except when I go to spit out what I thought was a wood chip, it was my tooth.

No wiggling front teeth out for me, nope. I WHACKED 'em out.
