So I'm eating a pretzel rod, Clancy's, and suddenly I feel a tiny bit of something that DEFINITELY ain't a pretzel rod bit. I stopped chewing immediately and rolled the thing out of my mouth from the pretzel stuff.
Turns out it's part of one of my back upper left teeth, since I feel something missing and something sharp. It wasn't bleeding at all and it doesn't hurt any different from before, nor did it hurt at the moment I felt it.
This happened on Saturday, and I'm waiting on a date from my dentist. I also probably had a filling in that area. There were no indications of a cavity from my last visit but they were concerned about my inflamed gums from not flossing enough.
Before any of that, what can anyone tell me about this? Like, why'd that happen? What does it indicate for the future? Should I get some work done on it?
Pic related but not mine. Reference size.

Why did you not arrange an emergency appointment with your dentist? You can have parts of teeth cemented back on if you do it soon enough.

Hold it in place and start downing milk

It happens, it's not a big deal. If you go to the dentist they can usually put it back for you, if not, they may advise you have the rest of the tooth epoxied so it doesn't break more.

Happened to me twice, just take an appointment with the dentist and they will reconstruct the tooth part. It will cost you around 80-100€.
