Suggest Remedy For Dental Problem

I have a loose baby tooth and it wont come out. The tooth is loose but the toot isn't. It used to be a lot more wobbly until the tooth next to it fell. It's been less loose for about a year. What do I do? Does my dentist have to extract it? Is it nessisary? If so, what do they do. If not, what do I do? Thanks In Advance. The adult tooth is behind it and the baby tooth is really slanted to the front and pushed

Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

The milk tooth has to be removed , if it is not falling down( since your age is not been mentioned in the query we cannot suggest you to wait for its own extrusion ).

I would advice you to visit your dentist and get it removed as it's presence may prevent the erupting permanent tooth to come in correct position.

Hope this was useful .
Thanks and regards.

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

If the permanent tooth is about to come then dont worry the tooth will fall by its own, as you have mentioned the tooth is slanty and pushed after sometime it will fall by its own so dont worry.
Maintain a good oral hygiene.

Take care!
