I have read your query and understand your concern . As far as rotten root left in gum is concerned it can cause inflammation in gum secondary to Periodontal or Periapical Abscess . For this I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for clinical examination and treatment Extraction (removal of rotten root ) . After removal you can go for treatment Fixed or Removable prosthesis for replacement of tooth . Inmeantime I will suggest you to do warm saline rinses 2 to 3 times a day . Maintain good oral hygiene . Brush your teeth twice daily . Use Mouthwash regularly .
