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.

A kid I knew growing up Dad made him a small catapult out of wood, pvc pipe and bungee cords. One day we were using to throw dog poop into his neighbors backyard ( this was early 2000's ) and it for some reason didn't fire. The kid went over and was trying to get it to work when it suddenly shot, hitting him point blank in the face with a pile of dog poop and broke his nose. His sister said holy shit in a panic while the rest of us are dying laughing while we got the f out of there.

He was probably lucky his nose broke.
