Answer 1

ok hi uhmmm i answered another one of your questions and i said a friend should call you a w***e. i didnt mean that i mean shouldnt hahaha so if your reading this sorry! i forgot the 'nt part!

Answer 2

i say let the doctor pull it. it really doesnt hurt all that much after they give you a lil shot in your gum. but about the braces, the night before you get them take a liquid advil and take another one in the morning b/c they are gonna hurt

God bless

Answer 3

why torment yourself?  let the dentist do it - though he'll charge you.  or you could just chew gum on it like crazy and hope that loosens it

Answer 4

heavy duty string and a door.

hahaha.

just kidding,

when i still had my baby teeth, i wiggled them as much as i possibly could. all i ate was hard foods (steak, apples, jawbreakers, hard candies, even ice cubes) and that always made my tooth come out faster than it should.

i am supposed to be getting braces soon as well.

here are some tips on getting braces.

- The amount of pain when they're first put on varies. There will be some pain after your monthly tightenings, but you'll get used to the few days of discomfort will become routine after a while.

- Softer foods are going to be your friend initially. If you're the type of person that has trouble putting on weight, a calorie/protein type shake might not be a bad idea since when you're teeth hurt, you don't feel like eating, and thus your weight drops a bit.

- You can still eat things like steaks if you just take the time to cut it up into smaller than before you had braces size pieces.

- The list of foods that will make cleaning your braces a nightmare is long. If you love a big green salad...your smile is unfortunately going to look like the canopy of a rain forest right afterwards. Brushing your teeth right after meals (if not with toothpaste, just to clean the gunk off) will become a habit too.

But the most important thing is...remember that it will ALL be worth it in the end. Just keep the picture of how beautiful your smile is going to be when you're done clear in your mind, and you'll be able to endure the process just fine!

- Good luck

Answer 5

If it's as loose as you say it is, I would just constantly fiddle with it with my tongue for the rest of the week until it either came out or until it was so loose it wouldn't hurt if the dentist pulled it out.  This is because I'm such a wimp, I could never just pull a tooth out just like that.  But it might not even hurt if the dentist pulled it out; maybe he'll give you a painkiller.  I've never had one pulled, so I can't help you there.
