    Holy...dude... How did you manage to fall 70 feet? That's like 6-7 floors!

    No other injuries?

    Dental implains may be the best option but it's quite expensive in US. It may cost you about $3,500 to $4,000 for each tooth. Go to foreign country such as Taiwan or China may be cheaper, but I don't know about the quaility there.

    Avoid full contact until there fixed, and take the stairs next time.

    My advice...get well soon. Ouch.

    Only a dentist will be able to tell you whether they will tighten up or not. You will want to get those looked at as soon as possible as your teeth will start to naturally migrate to fill the gap. Regarding the loose teeth it depends on how much damage has been done. Some tighten up again while some fall out.

    At least you can rest up that leg now too eh?

    70 feet?

    21.3 meters?

    I'm calling shenanigans.

    In my line of work, I have the pleasure of working on a 10 - 12 meter scaffold tower. Falling face first from this sort of height is death, unless you're missing out some serious details.
