i usually ignore most things and let them heal or get aid later on if needed

i was dirtjumping and ended up going over the handlebars of my bike and into a big rock

nose bleed for the first time ever...  ive been sucker punched slammed so many times wrestling even fucked up my sinuses getting decked once and have had 4 mild concusions and a few undiagnosed

i have a hole the size of (         )   in my nose    knocked out canine and a purple face possibly broken but it doesnt hurt that bad it may just be the adrenaline from almost going into a quarry

clearly i need to have a plastic surgeon tie up the puncture, how long can i wait

Go to an urgent care. If you have health insurance the co-pay (if there even is one) is like $20. Get checked out, referred to a specialist, etc.

Better safe than sorry man. I'd go to the doctor if I had a hole in my face.

Well you should at least get to a dentist if you still have the tooth put it in milk. It may be able to be put back in. You would then need Antibiotics. Typically when teeth get knocked out with those type of injuries you have a fracture in your skull might need that looked at. just saying. Get your ass to a dentist and or urgent care

Disclaimer I am a dentist but this is who you should see and call your dentist and tell them what happened

Its a sad day when people can't decide if they should seek medical attention when they get hurt. Jesus christ.
