The force of the blow caused Dragic’s teeth to cut straight through his bottom lip—a wound that required 8 stitches to stop the bleeding.
UPDATE: Goran Dragic received 3 stitches on the inside of his lip & 5 on the outside. Dragic's bottom teeth went through lip during contact.

Almost surprisingly, he managed to keep all of his teeth intact after the play. Dragic had previously lost teeth in December and April of this season.
