You will have repeated dental abbsesses. These cause a weakening of the gum and eventually lead to gum disease. If untreated, abbsesses eventually will cause an infection in the jaw bone and skull, which can be very severe and potentially life threatening. The tooth will eventually die and you will feel no more pain. But take heed, when your leg dies or your fingers die, they are amputated and for good reason. Dead tissue left in situ can lead to gangrene. In addition, decaying teeth normally are very bacteriologic, meaning the chances of more teeth decaying is increased. Brushing, mouth washes and flossing will not help a great deal. Go get your tooth out! You will have repeated dental abbsesses. These cause a weakening of the gum and eventually lead to gum disease.
