It does not look like there's any blood involved, so I'd say no to the need for an ER visit. Does he seem to be in pain at all? Is he eating and drinking okay?

He raced under the bed and won't look at me, lol. You are right, no blood, no roots??? This is so bizarre!

Yup, so it's not like he ripped it out attacking someone or thing! Just watch him when he emerges from hiding, it would be a good idea to get the vet to look at his teeth anyway, as there's likely gum disease or something that caused this, but nothing urgent to need an ER visit tonight, and the expense and trauma to you both/all!Originally Posted by Freedom

I don't think it's an emergency. Make an appointment next chance you get for a dental. And start saving your money.
Their teeth are so tiny, but our vet charges about $100 a tooth for an extraction. Hopefully, Tommy will get a clean bill of health.
Give Tommy a special (soft) treat. He just saved you $100 by getting rid of the tooth himself.
Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

We would like the kitty tooth fairy to deliver hugs, snuggles and lovies. I hope Tommy's toothies are okay!Tommy, sweety, please come out from under the bed so mum can look at your mouth. Please please.
Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!
"That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

It worked, Elise, he heard you and came out! It is an upper tooth which came out. BIG hole, looks like 2 spaces? Not bleeding, though.

My opinion - go first thing in the morning, but I think you're OK for tonight. You need to see (just like in humans!) what caused the tooth to release.
GO RAVENS!!
