This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.
Visitor asks:

This concerns the upper left 6. Since almost the whole tooth chipped away, my doctor sent me for dental imaging. The image showed that the root is healthy and the tooth does not hurt.
The doctor believes that extraction is the only solution. Since I did not decide to have it removed, he only ground down these "stumps" as much as possible. He believes it can simply
remain like this, and if it starts to hurt I should come back so that he can extract it. Given that the root is healthy, is this really the only solution? Please advise whether, despite the fact that it has
been ground down to the gum and in one area has also broken somewhat more deeply, it can be preserved in some way!
Thank you for your advice and have a nice day!

Dear Sir/Madam!

To give you the answer you want, I would need to see the X-ray image, which you can send me at [email protected].

Have a nice day!
