You should have gone in when it happened. One of two things can happen now: it will firm back up and nothing will happen, or you killed it/broke the root...in which case it will die and have to come out.

Reply:Hi,


After a fall, a tooth usually is loosen due to localized inflammation in the trauma area. It often will stabilized by itself and firmed up after 14 days (two weeks). If the tooth continue to inflammed after two weeks, there might be an occlusal interference occur and can be resolved with a quick reduction of the contact area, easily done by your dentist. Your tooth should not have any more pain at this time. Sometimes the trauma will kill the nerve of the tooth, which cause the tooth to be darken. If occur, it will happen in about the second to third months. There will be no pain except that the cyst will start to form at the apex. Upon diagnosis, the root canal therapy will be performed. Unless the tooth is evulsed (completely detached) from the socket, loose tooth usually reattached and healed itself without any problem. My advice for you is wait at least two three months before making the decision to have the root canal done. If the tooth is not darkened, leave it alone. Hope my answer can be helpful to you.
