Only if the tooth is left untreated and becomes abcessesed and the infection spreads to your brain.

We aren't doctors, go to an emergency room or emergency dentist if this happened to you and you're concerned.

That may take a while Rand. The dental office is giving me the runaround about insurance. I'm about to tell them to take a flying leap

No, because our ancestors didn't die when there wasn't any anesthesia to take of a broken tooth, it just gonna be painful

As a medical “professional” I would refer you to a Dentist and tell you to see them asap. Otherwise, avoid anything likely to inflame your gums, hard foods, sweet, too cold, etc. 800mcg of OTFC too lol

It can harm the brain.

But nothing really close to causing a fatality.

"In the year 1843, the American Society of Dental Surgeons (ASDS), founded in New York City, declared use of amalgam to be malpractice because of the fear of mercury poisoning in patients and dentists and forced all its members to sign a pledge to abstain from using it."
