Do you get the feeling that your teeth are moving sometimes?

I think my teeth are moving around in my mouth! not suddenly but more of a gradual process! my front tooth is clicking and i can just wiggle it back and forth! it is a weird feeling. should this happen? and no, my gums are not rotten, i dont have scurvy.. i have good oral hygiene etc. etc.

maybe it's just loose. I remember my dentist saying something about in time, teeth sometimes become loose due to the food we eat.. like for example if we eat a lot of crunchy or hard stuff like candy even popcorn.. they eventually make our teeth loose but not enough to fall off..
Reply:I had this problem many years ago. My teeth were loose and I went to a Dr. Snow who was practicing a new idea of Dr. Keyes of Washington DC. It turned out not to be new really, since it was something my mother told me to do when I was a kid. It was simply to brush my teeth with baking soda and salt, but now you added peroxide to mixture. Also you would use this mixture in one of those water floss gadgets to aerate between the gums.


The peroxide was to kill germs and because it bubbles it removes the germs out of the crevices of the teeth and gums, the baking soda helps whiten and the salt toughens and kills germs and the gums. I used this idea and my gums strenghten and to this day, I don't have a problem with loose teeth.


So though it seems like a simple solution to the problem it works, believe me and worth your trying. Sometimes the old methods still work better than your "new improved" ones.


In fact my dentist showed me how many new tooth pastes incorporate the salt and baking soda ingredients and that is what works and the other ingredients are just a waste and add to the expense of the product.
Reply:I had it before. I heard it is due to stones around the gum. I went to the dentist to clean up. Take more calcium milk or related products. It helps to strengthen back.
Reply:My teeth were like that last year before I lost them. I just figured it would go away on its own but instead of getting better it just got worse. I thought I was doing an ok job of taking care of my teeth, but I guess not. Finally my teeth got so loose I actually lost a couple of my front teeth. When I went to the dentist he said I had advanced PD, which I didn't even know I had. My teeth and gums looked ok to me. Anyways, I ended up having all of my teeth pulled last year and I'm only 16. Better get it checked out while you still have teeth. Maybe they can do something...I don't know what but it's probly worth a shot.
Reply:teeth move. sometimes weather will do this to mine. do you grind your teeth at night? that could be a big problem. if so, just ask the dentist for a bite guard to wear when u sleep. maybe bring this to his/her attention next time you go in and see what they say! good luck! :-)
