A long time ago, I chipped my tooth. I didnt bother it for a long time, I had a small piece of tooth in my gum. Well today it got loose, and I cant get it out! I dont want to go to a dentise, I am scared of bad tesults. It's a really small piece of tooth, I believe. What else can I do besides see a dentist? Thanks so much!

You can't get the gum out? Just get out what you can and brush really well; floss too.
A chipped tooth isn't a problem unless it hurts.

odds of an infection would not be extreme, till he has an open wound and would not save it sparkling. 2 years later I doubt that there is any genuine situation, although i could save an eye fixed on it in case it turns right into a situation on down the line. look ahead to swelling or a 'blister' like formation on the exterior of the gum which might sign an impacted (inner) an infection.

You should definitely see your dentist. I don't understand what you mean " scared of bad results ". That's that you are experiencing now. Extracting is necessary.....

Try and put a tooth pick in and get it out.
