Question:
My tooth has broken off but the root is still intact. what would happen if i don't get it removed?
Answers:
There is an opening down the middle of the root called a root canal. Once that root canal is exposed to your oral cavity due to your tooth breaking apart, germs can get in.
Once germs get in, you will get an abscess at the bottom of the tooth root (where the root canal goes to), and it will infect and rot a hole in your jawbone there, and cause serious problems.
Get it taken care of as soon as possible.
