Rotten teeth: Any teeth that are hopeless and nonrestorable should be extracted. Why wait for trouble?

Rotted tooth: You've already experienced what can happen from a rotted tooth. It can even be worse... some people have died from infected teeth. I'm not trying to scare you. Just making you aware of the consequences of leaving teeth that are decayed or ones that have an infection. See a dentist to work up a treatment plan for you asap! Be wise and safe.
