and AJ is a game time decision
Reported as a core injury for Diarra. Jackson is inillness or injury?
He lost it earlier this season in the first Georgetown game. I'm assuming he needs an implant to replace the tooth he lost. When that happens the procedure is they put a post in but that has to be in for about a year so it can set into the jaw bone before they attach the implant to the post. He probably has what they call a flipper now that looks like a tooth but is temporary and can come out (it's kind of like a retainer with a tooth attached). So I'm assuming the flipper got damaged today.What happened to Clingon’s tooth? Sounds lijke that was pregame
Ian just said flipper was knocked out during layup drills. I’ve been there. Needed bone graft and a year as you said before implant resolved issue.He lost it earlier this season in the first Georgetown game. I'm assuming he needs an implant to replace the tooth he lost.

I'm not a dentist but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
