Narrative

Ee was pushing down the dig face on the 5380. The dozer hit a rock in the face, causing it to stop abruptly, and the ee's teeth to bite down/clash together, fracturing a molar on the lower left side. Seen at the dentist who confirmed no unusual decay causing fracture, determined work related.
