If I can't have some sort of dental operation, do you think I can just keep it as is? I kind of get the potential infection thing. A lot of people run around with broken teeth though. Do I really need an extraction? Advice? Pic is random and unrelated.

I have a few broken teeth and was hoping to save up for implants but because I stated in on social media and am at war with a few governments no one will let me get enough money to do that and foreign intel comes out occasionally and flashes their teeth to me lmao. They are just teeth at the end of the day. Yeah aesthetics matter but shouldn't. Just get it pulled and get a denture, bridge or implant.

You might have an inco.petent and negligent dentist. If you want a procedure done even if it is not necessary for dental care but for cosmetic reason then he should be able to perform said procedure or reference a more suited professional.bsayi g there is nothing to be done and leaving like that is just a guy who is tir3d and going through the motions. Get a second and third opinion if you must. Mediocre dentist and doctors are aplenty.

If the root is exposed then he will be in pain and more parts of the tooth will snap over time. I am just lucky that mine snapped in certain ways and extraction would have to be surgical rather than the usual way. Yeah losing teeth is not great but billions pf people have missing teeth. There is all the bullshit about them moving and stuff but that takes years. I pissed of some glowies and because they know I want tooth implants they aggressively target me so I cannot afford implants. There is actually more good news coming on the teeth front but only one country has it and they aren't sharing. Losing a tooth or two doesn't even affect chewing ability that much.

Yeah over 20+ years. It takes a while. People have always lost teeth. You don't just lose a tooth and then they all start swinging around and falling out. If you hit 40/50 with most of your teeth you'll probably be fine. And in around 30 years I think regrowing teeth and enamel will start coming to market. Losing a tooth isn't the end of the world. The prices of implants are coming down and I would suggest an implant if possible but a bridge or missing tooth isn't the end of the world. He will be in paid from hot and cold drinks and food is the nerve is exposed and will be begging to have it ripped out eventually.
