Loose tooth?

is it bad to have a permenent tooth that is a little loose? its just a little like if i try to move it. i had braces so i was wondering if its normal to have a tooth be a tiny bit loose every now and then.

Loose tooth?
LOOSE?? LOOSE?? EAT MORE BANANANS, THEY ARE BINDING.
Reply:yes it is, as the braces pull the tooth in it will wiggle a little bit.
Reply:yeah, when you have braces they become slightly loose not too loose.
Reply:Hi, I'm a dentist.





The short answer: it depends.





Now for the long answer. Which tooth is this? How much is a little bit loose? All teeth are mobile at the sub-millimeter level. If teeth are moveable by more than a millimeter, it can be a sign of periodontal disease, and it can also be from recent trauma to the tooth. Orthodontic treatment can actually make teeth more loose than they normally are, so if you are still in braces, the teeth are likely going to be slightly mobile.





I really would need more information to answer this question properly.





I suggest you visit your dentist to have your tooth evaluated.





Good luck.
