PLEASE HELP!!!! THIS IS AN EMERGENCy?

Question

Hi, I am 12 years old and do not have braces. I only have 1 baby tooth more to lose and I have a question. My 5th tooth in on my right side is extremely loose (half is half isn't) and I am not sure if it is a baby tooth or not. I don't want to pull it out if it is an adult tooth, but it is causing my a LOT of pain and agony. What should I do? I don't go to the dentist for a couple of weeks and he is never availible. WHAT DO I DO????

Answer 1

If it is loose see if it like your other regular teeth. If it is loose, at twelve, it is probably a baby tooth. If it is really lose, try to work it out.If it is your permanant tooth, you probably cant pull it out like you would a baby tooth because of the root.

Answer 2

At 12 years old, your 2nd permanent molar may have erupted.

If this is the case, the back 2 teeth(molars) are your permanent molars and the one in front of those is a baby molar.

The only way likely way it would be a loose permanent tooth is if you had sustained some sort of injury.

Check the eruption chark link below.  Then pull out your loose baby molar.

Answer 3

Relax. Its a baby tooth. Adult teeth that come in won't be loose unless you injured your mouth. If it's loose its a baby tooth. What you should do is keep wiggling it till in releases and falls out. The pain your feeling is well rooted roots and nerves in a healthy mouth. That's great. Rinse your mouth out with salt water ( do not swallow the salt water mixture ) to reduce swelling. You can handle the pain. Good luck.
