Wisdom tooth - Help!

[Bobbywig]

A few years back the filling came of this tooth, and needed a root canal, got that sorted, then a while later the tooth snapped in two places. The gums around it are really sore and tender. What's wrong with it? Is it infected....?

Please no nasty comments . Thank you.

Extraction.

Extraction.

I thought so. While I'm here I've got a wisdom tooth coming through on the top.... It feels funny, like I can feel it in my mouth if that makes sense? Also it's coming in at a funny angle, and it feels gritty, my toothbrush can't get to it either.

I had loads of teeth removed years ago...

It is difficult to keep clean for your upper wisdom tooth. But if you want to keep it, you have to keep it clean.

If it has decay in the future, it will be difficult to put a filling. And if is impossible to put a filling at that angle, it may require to be extracted (plus you don't have an opposing wisdom tooth for it to function/bite).

I've not be able to get to the dentist because of covid. The gaps got bigger and it really smells. Should I just pull it out?

Well has I said it's just got WORSE. And it got a horrible taste and smells bad and I'm really anxious about it

So would you say I should just pull it out myself? It's pretty much dead anyway. So don't think it would hurt that much?

Update! I got the tooth removed this morning and where the hole is, it's all black? Is that an infection?
