So about a year ago I had a root canal done on one my my molars, early today when flossing a part of the tooth broke away, I'd say about 1/6th of it. It is slightly black around where it broke. Is this repairable or am I going to lose my tooth? I can't afford to get dental implants or anything and I'm really stressing out.

Hi.

It's hard to know without more information. Was this tooth crowned after the root canal treatment?

I had a root canaled tooth without a crown that broke like that. The dentist was able to put a crown on it to protect the tooth.
