<s>[INST] Hi all and one,I just had a tooth extraction done Monday just gone. Was glad to find that I don't have a dry socket but several things are worrying me: Firstly it looks like 2 roots have been left in there, can this be right? Will it have complications later on? As the tooth was suppose to be taken out due to pus being developed on the gum and was infecting everything around it,..?Secondly, the tooth next to it it's gum split...one side is flopping around? Will it grow back together?Shall I be rebooking to go and see the dentist? Thank you in advance [/INST] Thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. The left out root can get infected in future if the root piece is more than 2-3mm. smaller root tip if it is left, it will get resorbed by natural phenomenon. since you are giving history of pus discharge its better to get it removed unless it is very close to the important vital structures. the split gums will heal back if it is approximated properly after extraction. consult a oral physician and get a radiograph done to rule out the presence of root pieces and get it removed if it is longer and any presence of infection with the root tip. i hope my answer will help you. take care </s>
