Chrissy Teigen is recovering from a festive dental mishap!
The cookbook author, 40, shared in a video on Instagram on Sunday, Dec. 21, that she knocked out one of her front veneers in a candy cane accident while preparing a festive game for her children at home.
“Merry chrithmath from our family to yours!!!!!!!” Teigen jokingly wrote in the caption, as she revealed the stub of her original tooth in several clips and photos.
In the video, which was titled “Growing Candy Cane (Gone wrong),” Teigen was seen helping her kids, Luna, 9, Miles, 7, Esti and Wren, both 2, fill plant pots with candy cane and crumbled Oreo cookies as they sat around a dining table at home.
Teigen then appeared in a following clip three days later, sitting on a couch beside piles of candy canes as she revealed that she had knocked out her tooth while preparing the sweet treats for her kids.

“I’ve been working on candy cane-growing. I tried to open one of these bad boys … my tooth fell off,” she said laughing, as she showed off her old whittled front tooth.
Teigen explained that she still had “the whole piece” of her veneer as she appeared to see the funny side of the situation.
“This is what moms do for their kids, so you can think you grew a candy cane,” said Teigen. “I was trying to create magic — now I have no tooth. And tomorrow's the Winter Sing … oh my God!” she added, referring to her kids’ school recital.

Teigen was next seen driving her kids to their recital and watching from her seat in the audience as she wore a face mask partially covering her mouth.
“Had to go to recital like this,” wrote Teigen. Her husband, John Legend, responded in the comment section, “😂😂😂😂.”
It didn’t take long for Teigen to fix her teeth as she later posted a video on her Instagram Stories of herself sitting in a dentist’s chair having her veneer refitted.
“We are back in business, shout out to the tooth goat,” she wrote over the clip, tagging her longtime cosmetic dentist, Dr. Laurence Rifkin.
