Sure - it depends on the case, and that’s entirely my point. If it hasn’t erupted but still is, it may move teeth. If it has partially erupted it may be harder

Sure - it depends on the case, and that’s entirely my point. If it hasn’t erupted but still is, it may move teeth. If it has partially erupted it may be harder to clean, etc. My point is blanket “don’t worry until it’s infected” isn’t quite right either.
