He extracted his molar and then put it back

Question
What is the ruling on the prayer of someone who extracted his molar and then put it back in his mouth?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: His prayer is valid; because the bone is either flesh or nerve, and both are pure. See: Al-Bahr Al-Ra'iq 1: 113, Al-Durr Al-Mukhtar 1: 138, and Sharh Al-Wiqayah p. 101, and God knows best.
