Model Chrissy Teigen has lost a front tooth after a mishap with a candy cane.
Teigen, who has four children with singer John Legend, shared on Instagram how the dental disaster unfolded.
In the clip, she shared how she and her children had been “growing” candy canes.
The children filled flower pots with crushed Oreo cookies before “planting” small candy canes inside.
Teigen revealed she had planned on swapping the small candy canes for larger ones, to give the impression they had grown.
She had been trying to remove plastic from the sweet treat when her veneer broke.
“Tried to open one of these bad boys. My tooth fell off,” she said.
“It’s a veneer. I have the whole piece.
“This is what mums do for their kids. So you think you grew a candy cane.
“I was trying to create magic. Now, I have no tooth.”
She even had to attend her eldest son’s school performance the next day with a missing tooth before it could be fixed.
