Minor "set back" for Jerry

Sunday Morning Jerry was snacking on some fresh cherries when he bit down and the cap on one of his front tooth breaking the tooth under as well, leaving the root remaining in the gum. Jerry is now missing one of his front teeth. Not one of the two, but one right next to it. Jerry will visit our dentist this afternoon, but because of his ONJ it will require special treatment to repair the tooth. They will probably not be able to remove the root of the tooth that remains, but will need to do a root canal first, less invasive. Not sure how they will be able to replace the lost tooth???
