I'm : I'm sorry to hear that you broke your tooth. It is unfortunately impossible to diagnose you online. If you are not in pain, you should be able to wait till after the weekend. However if you are hurting, there are dentist were open on saturday, and I am sure they will welcome a new patient. I am sorry that this is all that i can give you from the information you have provided. Best wishes, dr. Zev kaufman.

If : If you are not uncomfortable, you can spend the weekend asking your friends for a recommendation for anew dentist. Most dentists would be happy to see you early next week on a new patient emergency basis. At that time the dentist will evaluate your dental condition, and your need for pre-operative antibiotics.
