Gluesticks

HOW CAN I GET SUPERGLUE OFF OF MY TEETH? URGENT!!!!!?

i know this sounds ridiculous but I'm seriously worried here. I was trying to clear a blockage to a bottle of loctite brand super glue with a sewing needle. I was trying and it was really jammed up. Finally after a minute or two the needle went through. When this happened the bottle squirted super glue all over my face lips cheek tongue and teeth. Thank God it didn't go into my eyes. I have managed to remove all the super glue from my skin and tongue with relative ease. It is however stuck to my teeth. I have been brushing at it for about 20 mins with my toothbrush (which is now ruined) and I haven't made any progress. Also I am afraid to swallow my saliva as I fear it may now be toxic. PLEASE HELP ME!!!! This happened about 30 minutes ago. EDIT* I am pretty sure it will come off on its own in time. I am however extremely worried about the toxicity of my saliva after coming in contact with the glue. How toxic is this stuff? Is it safe to drink and/or eat? EDIT* ok thanks for the timely responses guys. I just got off the phone with poison control and they said in its solid form it is not toxic and I should be just fine. In the course of a week or so it should come off on its own. Thanks again so much guys I was freaking out :^)

  1. Ring for medical advice. Seriously.
  2. use nail polish remover on a q-tip
  3. go to the emergency room now get offline
  4. Do not use nail polish remover, use butter. Seriously Also, once it is dry (almost immediately) it will not come off and you wont swallow it. I would take precaution and use a drinking straw though when you drink acid things such as soda, the acid can cause it to react together.
  5. Call your dentist NOW. Or go to the ER.
  6. oh my gosh. okay, first check to see if there's a contact number for questions on the back of the tube of super glue, if there isn't or if the number is no help, then call poison control and ask if you should be worried. i honestly don't know what you should do but to me that seems like a good start. good luck to you, i hope everything turns out alright.
