Too late: Sounds like what is left of your teeth are badly infected. Brushing stumps is a waste of time/effort at this point. Important that the remaining infected tooth roots be removed immediately. Infection is spreading, via circulatory system, to your other organ systems. Dental infections implicated in heart attacks, stroke, kidney disease, and worse
