if I have a cracked tooth that doesn't hurt but I can't get it taken care of right now, eventually would it lose nerve & bone underneath as if not even there?

when I do get it taken care of, can they put me to sleep? I heard of this stuff called Halcyon, but I dont know much about it except it makes you not care about or remember anything during & directly after.

ELECTRIC,
THIS CRACK MAY BE A TRUE CRACK THAT MAY REALLY CAUSE YOU SERIOUS PROBLEMS, OR THIS MAY BE A CRAZE LINE WHICH IS OFTEN SEEN IN A TOP FRONT TOOTH AND WILL NOT CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS AT ALL. THESE CRAZE LINES ARE ONLY VISIBLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT AND UP CLOSE. PEOPLE DON'T USUALLY SEE THESE.
IN EITHER CASE SEE A DENTIST AND HAVE IT LOOKED AT.

It has to be seen by a dentist. It can get infected and go right into your brain. Later, when they use the munbing stuff, you just may feel how far the pain and infection went. EG ear, temple and front part of brain to specfic locations in the back brain.
The roo tmay be exposed and it may need to be removed if you wait. Root canal. Dead tooth.
