if its a loose tooth, make sure to pull it straight up or it might grow back in crooked. if its not loose then you need to go to the dentist.

If it is an adult molar - you would be crazy to try. Molars have 3 or more roots that go in different directions helping to secure the tooth to your jaw bone. If you are lucky, you pull, and it comes out in one piece, and takes a large chuck of bone with it which causes extreeme pain and a need for reconstructive bone surgery. If you are unlucky, the tooth breaks at the bone line with nothing to grab onto to remove the rest of the tooth. The nerve is now exposed to the air, and there is nothing you can do to stop the intense pain and throbbing.
A dentist is specially trained and still can not remove a tooth without the proper tools. We use special tools called an elevator to lift the tooth out of the socket, not PULL it out. Once the ligament that hold it in is broken, the tooth is wiggly, but still takes precision to lean it in just the right direction with just the right amount of pressure to prevent it from breaking while allowing it to come out of the whole.
Painless with anesthetic, a nightmare at home with a makeshift tool.
GO TO A DENTIST.

Hi,
Are you talking about a childs tooth or an adult tooth? Either one..visit a dentist. The dentist will let you know if it is a baby tooth, how to take it out. If that baby tooth is really infected or even broken, then the dentist needs to extract it. If it is an adult tooth, then for sure the dentist needs to remove it to make sure that there is no infection. Good luck!!

You need to see a dentist for that. If the tooth is a baby tooth then you can wiggle it off but if it is an adult tooth then the dentist will take it out with dental instruments.

if its lose enough, just push it out with your tongue. if its not lose why do you want to take your tooth out? go to a dentist, they are good at that.
