“Can you leave a dead tooth in your mouth?”
I am a 37 year old male. I want to know if you can leave a dead tooth in your mouth?

Absolutely not. A dead tooth holds bacteria in it, and eventually can cause an abscess. Leaving a dead tooth in the mouth is just a series of bad events waiting to happen.
Ultimately, this is something you should discuss with your general Dentist to be further evaluated and treatment planned accordingly.
