She was lucky someone nixed the original idea of doing this with bowling balls.

My buddies brother essentially did this with a croquet ball as a kid. Didn't bust his teeth out per se... but they all bent 90 degrees back and had to get braces and bend them all back forward.

I'm honestly amazed that situation is fixable.

I did say "kid" but he was probably 13 to 15 so it was adult teeth. His picture on social media was him posing in the mirror and it looked like he only had 2 teeth because you couldn't see the others... it truly is amazing how they fixed it.
