I have a loose tooth, I NEED HELP!!!?

Hi, I have this baby tooth, and the back has been popped off for a day, and i have tried breaking the front off... i know this sounds sick but, it won't break free, do i just leave it (it HURTS REALLY BAD!!!) or do i twist as hard as I can? I HAVE TRIED TWISTING IT VERY FAR, but it just doesn't want to break loose...

I have a loose tooth, I NEED HELP!!!?
Take some advil for the pain and just get a tissue and hold it over the tooth. Wiggle it slightly, until it hurts a tad. You're going to have to bear the pain and wiggle it. It should slowly become looser. I've popped a tooth off with my tongue before!
Reply:It might still have the root! Only when primary teeth (baby teeth) fall out they dont have a root. So it might be in there pretty deep! If you wanted to try it yourself I would get orajel (it has the numbing effect) and try to extract it!
Reply:Just get a paper towel grab the tooth and wiggle it around a bit. It will eventually come out.
Reply:Totally agree. wiggle it and leave it alone for a while, then wiggle it some more. It will work loose after a while.
Reply:To make this less painful, put some ice in your mouth and swish it all around that tooth until it feels numb. Then take a damp folded dish towel or damp folded wash cloth and place it under or over the tooth in your mouth and bite down hard on the folded towel. You can sort of chew on the towel, just make sure you have enough towel to bite down hard with this tooth. If it doesn't come out the first time, try again until you get it.
Reply:This is going to sound kind of silly but if you only have part of it left try chewing some gum right where the other piece is left! How many times have you heard about people losing fillings doing this? Alot! Otherwise though, rub some Orajel in the area and then try to take out the remaining part of the tooth. It sounds like part of the root has not resorbed and it could take a while, so I would personally try to take it out if it were mine.
