Bread is actually one of the only foods you chew with both sides of your mouth at the same time. If there are any occlusion problems.
I guess that depends on the person because I don't, I roll my bread up into little balls the size of a gumball and eat it like my 5 year old...
But how often does a person eat just a slice of bread anymore these days???
Another one we get a lot is salad, was eating some lettuce and it broke. (Most of the time it's teeth coming out when I say broke)
Point is rarely does the patient tell you/office that they dropped it in the sink that morning, or was eating a jolly rancher (we had that one yesterday) when it broke.
It all comes down to cost/money, patients assume we (lab/doctor) will take more responsibility if they make it sounds like it wasn't anything they done. When in fact it doesn't make any difference to us (my lab) we cover it or don't cover it just the same depending on timeline of the case. Generally speaking there is always exceptions.
