Will The Loose Top Last Tooth Cause Serious Problem While Sleeping?

Hello Doctor my name is Abel I have a loose tooth that has been a problem for a long time yet I was told a couple of years ago that the problem is not serious. I am worried the tooth should not come out while I am sleeping otherwise I can choke to death obviously. The kind and location is top last tooth back. Thanks

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The mobile tooth can be removed under local anesthesia. Consult a oral physician and get it removed. Do not worry, it will not come out so easily. Before it becomes more mobile, consult a dental surgeon and get it treated.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
