Loose tooth. What are my chances of keeping it?



Hi there,

I went for a root canal op 18 months ago. The doctor told me that I could
keep the tooth installing a crown, etc. However, I had to go abroad for
work reasons and stopped the treatment, and I just forgot the whole thing.

Recently I ate some peanuts and because of that, it turns out, my tooth
went loose today. It doesn't really hurt me (nerve is gone). I have an
appointment with a dentist tomorrow (I knew I had to do it sooner or later,
but I am quite busy. I know it is my fault).

My question is: what are my chances of keeping the tooth?

Thanks.

Mark
