If the tooth is actually broken off or going to create issues down the road........I would think about having the vet look at it and maybe removing it..... broken teeth are painful.. if the root is exposed and can create alot of problems later... :hug:
 
Oh my...that at some point ...may create issues.... food particles can get in there....and rot the tooth..causing a tooth abscess....it is just like with people ...it is really sensitive...and can rot....if not repaired in some way...or removed.... Yes...there will be a hole there... but ...which would be better....
I see more issues ...if it where left...especially if the nerve is exposed... quite painful..I would think... :(

You have a good cause to be being concerned....I would too.... You can do what you wish... this is just what I'd do... if I where in your situation..... use your best judgment...as I believe in my heart... you have alot of good judgment there....even over the vets recommendations... :wink:
