What foods can I eat that won't do more damage or hurt my broken tooth?

Basically I was eating some crisps last night when a bit of one my molars broke off.i didn't feel it and only noticed there was a hole on the side of my tooth when I moved my tongue over it.

I have quite a few cavities as well and I can't eat food that's too hot, eat anything hard (even eating certain cereal hurts a bit) and I can't drink anything too cold (unless I use a straw).

I'm going to phone the dentist this morning but I may not be able to get an appointment until next week

    Like you said, no hard, too cold or too hot foods. But no sugary stuff either, that`s awful for your teeth. Maybe try to avoid acidic stuff as well, it may not be as damaging but could also cause pain. Eat soft healthy stuff for now. Make sure you brush at least twice a day
