ive had a crow on tooth number 7 and it broke about two days ago rigth on the gum line what are my best options and tooth is kinda hurting please help
Answer: Broken crown from the gumline It looks to me that you had a root canal done in that tooth and decay developed under the crown, resulting in the loss of the crown. Visit your dentist for an examination to reevaluate your options of trying to save the tooth, or removing it and placing a dental implant. In my honest opinion, I would remove the tooth and place an implant.

Answer: Broken tooth A clinical exam and gum probing would reveal the relationship between the fracture and bone level. Depending on the findings, it can be decided if the tooth is restorable. A crown lengthening procedure can also be done when indicated.

Answer: Broken tooth It is impossible without an xray to really advise you with this but see a good dentist ASAP--they will be able to determine if the tooth can be saved and offer you your options. It may be hopeless if the decay extends close to the jaw bone. Good luck to you
