If a tooth is fractured down to the gumline and needs to be removed dentists have special ultrathin instruments that can be used like a lever to loosen and remove the remaining root.
A tooth that has broken off at the gum line, leaving only the root behind, needs to be extracted.
You can replace your missing teeth using DMA Dental Vouchers.
Vouchers are $49-$99 per week.
