Rootcanal/tooth broke off completely.

[LILA1963]

Hi Shelley
How r u ??

I need a question answered and since u're the most "knowledgeable" person that I know of to date; furthermore,
probably the ONLY person that will be truthful; as I don't even trust my dentist anymore ...
he doesn't beleive in the holistic approach to teeth etc ... basically he thinks it's a bunch of baloney

This is the situation at hand ...
If a person has had a rootcanal a couple years ago and then suddenly one day the tooth breaks in half ...
is what remains TOXIC in any way, shape or form ??
and then about 6 months later the other half breaks off so basically the person is left with NO tooth now,
but there's still stuff in the gums(cavity) so to speak that remains ... can this 'cause
digestive problems/disorders ... (or worst) toxins, blood poisoning (in time or in the long run) ??
Would what remains in the cavity (gums) then be considered TOXIC to our system???
In other words; the dentist still hasn't pulled out and removed the part that hasn't broken off
(just the tooth itself is NO longer there) ... he says NO but
I'm NOT convinced
... hence; I've come to the expert

Thank-u very much

If the root canal was very very old I'd worry, but less than 5 years old, the root that's left is probably fine. If you have any kind of leakage/infection, though, that's not good. infectious material can cause swelling and problems, particularly in the kidneys.
