Q.
Hello Dr. Moore: Thank you for answering my question, and with such quickness. I have a follow up question to ask you. The tooth I was telling you about in my first question has broken as a result of an unattended cavity which I had not realized had rotted part of my crown. As a result I was eating something which broke the tooth in half (the crown). So I now have a hole in my gum where the tooth use to be. Would you still recommend using mouthwash and brushing? Also, from your knowledge and sound of my case is my tooth able to be salvaged and should I worry about any toxicity leaking into my system at all? Is this something that requires immediate attention, it just happened yesterday and I probably won’t be able to make it to the dentist until saturday sometime should I try to go in sooner? Sorry for all the questions and I appreciate your response once again!!! Thank you
