question: My wife has just had an upper wisdom tooth removed by her dentist in Whitehaven this morning. Unfortunately the top of the tooth shattered and she has now been left with the roots still in her jaw. She is obviously still in pain but her dentist suggested that the referal to the West Cumberland Hospital  for surgery to remove the remnants of the tooth may be up to 2 months away. What could be the consequenses of this delay?RegardsRae Patterson
