What can I do about the gap, I still have the said tooth, would it be possible to have it replaced?

Before the hippy flower peace and love posse go on about "not fighting", I'd just like to point out that I was defending a young lady from her scumbag of a boyfriend.
Any decent fella would'v done the same thing.
To everyone else....thanks for the input

You can have an implant

If it JUST happened, as in the last 30 minutes or so, put it in a glass of cold milk, and get to a dentist NOW. Don't scrub it, or wipe off the dirt, or anything - just dunk it in a glass, and go.
If you don't have milk, cold water will do. But time is important.
If it's been a day or two, your options are going to be a spacer or bridge of some sort. But by this time, that tooth is dead, and it won't go back into your mouth.

Yes, if you still have a fresh wound. If wound still open and not healed closed, go to dentist asap!
You might want to ask an implant specialist if he would try implanting a duplicate model of the tooth (your tooth is without its nerve presently, so he would have to make a model using ceramics.) Maybe there is an implant specialist (try a university dental school graduate student) who will experiment
Good Luck!

Lost both my front teeth.play fighting tho,they was fractured so the dentist took them out but took imprints before,so hopefully you can get an imprint from yours because you still have it,I'm having implants £3,500,ouch!!!,so they are not putting the original teeth back in,you'll need false ones for now,6 months I have to have mine in for that was another £200,so get ready to pay allot of money,sorry about your teeth & hope you don't live with people like me who keep hiding them.I'm not to sure on wether you can have the origanal tooth put back but good luck anyway

if you still have the teeth that were knocked out then a dentist can put them back in place. Otherwise they can be replaced with fake teeth and either attached to the bone or attached to the other teeth in your mouth. Ask the dentist which he feels is best and will last the longest. The will look great!

Usually you should keep a tooth under your toung after it was knocked out, or keep it safe in warm water or something. But I guess you haven't done that. In that case you can still go to the dentist and ask if something can be done.
But otherwise you will maby need to get a false tooth or something
hope it helps

Fight till they all get knocked out the get implants. If this sounds stupid, I'm being sarcastic. In the future do what i dont dont fight. Just carry a pistol and learn to use it. I did.

you could possibly have had it put back in if you'd gone to hospital straight away...you will probably have to get an implant or false tooth and it will cost...any chance of suing the other person?
