What To Do About Loose Tooth At Front?
I have a bottom front tooth that is very loose. In fact it gets in the way of eating. I can't bite down of course. Also when chewing sometimes if it makes contact with my top teeth it causes great pain. I have no insurance and no dentist. What can I do?

Hi
With your query, it is confirmed that your teeth had lost their support and to rule out the treatment you must visit your dentist without which one cannot decide the treatment plan. If they are hopeless you have to get it extracted and replace the sane either fixed or removable and at the same time get your periodontal health status checked inorder to prevent further loss of teeth and be aware of oral hygiene instructions along with brushing techniques.Hope this helps you.
