Should I worry about a loose wisdome tooth? Do I have to get it pulled?

I may have bitten down on something hard or maybe it was just gum and now my wisdom is ever so slightly loose and sore.


My other wisdom teeth are fine however

Should I worry about a loose wisdome tooth? Do I have to get it pulled?
If it's loose and stays that way it may possibly have a fracture. I'd have it looked at.
Reply:No
Reply:It depends. This would depend on your age, the health of the tooth, and the health of your gums around the tooth.





I would wait 2-3 days to see what happens.. but biting down on something generally on its own doesn't loosen teeth.
Reply:I WOULD WAIT A FEW DAY AND EAT A SOFT DIET TO SEE IF THE TOOTH IMPROVES IN FIRMNESS.


IF IT'S STILL LOOSE AFTER A FEW DAYS HAVE A DENTIST LOOK AT IT BECAUSE IT MAY BE ACROWN FRACTURE.
