Tooth feels loose - please help!

Question

don't say its a baby tooth, I've lost them all and I'm 20. It is the first tooth to the left of my two front teeth and I can't actually shake it but it feels the same way it used to feel when I was ready to loose a baby tooth and it does seem to move the slightest bit when I shake it (which I immediately stopped doing.)

I have been slacking off with brushing my teeth for a long time but I wouldn't think a cavity could cause this. What could possibly make my tooth feel this way and is it possible to loose an adult tooth when your only 20. My dental hygene isn't THAT bad.

Answer 1

you may have gingivitis which can make your teeth feel a little loose - like spongy - you need to brush floss mouthwash - 3 times a day - and get to a dentist - once the gums get healthier this should stop - hope this helps

Answer 2

^well I'm not sure but what i would do is tell a dentist he´ll probably tell you what i is and how to stop it go for it and start brushing regularly. : )
