I had my front teeth smashed back into my mouth

Q. I had my font teeth smashed back into my mouth. Went to the UCH in london. They tried to put my teeth back straight. What can you do to put my teeth back straight and how long will it take to repair?

A. To have any chance of succesfully reimplanting teeth they need to be inserted within the first few hours of their loss.  Once placed it is not possible to remove themn and replce them ion a better position.
