If a permenent tooth becomes loose when you ate something hard, can your teeth's roots heal and go back?

Question

I was eating a tostitos chip and now my tooth is abit, alot ok in the middle? But anyway it is loose and permenent can the roots heal?

Im really worried. I heard I'm sopposed to call and make a appointment to a orthadontist or dentist. But I'm not sure what they would do. Do I have to get those things you take out? I really don't want those. Is there a technology for dental that gives you a fake plasticlike tooth that stays there?

Answer 1

It depends on just how the tooth is and what can be done to salvage it. Just eating chips made your teeth loose? It sounds like the tooth may have been unhealthy to begin with. Definitely seek the advice of a dentist- ASAP!

As for your other question, there are things called "tooth implants" done by oral surgeons that fit a tooth down into your gum and stays there just like a normal tooth. They are probably expensive but I'm sure they look and feel much better than a bridge or false teeth.

Good luck! :)

Answer 2

You have a major problem that can only be cured by spending big money.

The other answerer was right that your tooth was bad before and now you are just realizing it. Around here it is about $1500 to get the implant anchor installed in your jaw bone by a periodontist. Then you need to go to a regular dentist who will make the tooth that attaches to the anchor for another $1500.

I had a permanent front tooth come loose when I was like 14. I couldn't help playing with it with my tongue cuz it wiggled when I talked and it fell out like a few days later. I just left the gap after it came out to go with my other gaps. I had really bad teeth already tho.

Answer 4

NO See you dentist ASAP

Answer 5

No, you need to go to the dentist.
