I have a eleven-year-old daughter who has 4 loose adult teeth. They aren%26#039;t very loose but they do move slightly. Is there anything that I, or a dentist can do to prevent them from falling out?
4 Loose Adult Teeth?
Teeth all wiggle SOMEWHAT, if you look closely enough. An 11 year old will have teeth that are still erupting into the mouth. If you check those teeth, it is normal for them to be looser than the others. Just don%26#039;t keep checking it or you will cause problems. You say, %26quot;they aren%26#039;t very loose,%26quot; so I%26#039;m basing my answer on that information.
Reply:the dentist can best answer that for you,.When was the last time your daughter visited the dentist?
Reply:when i was younger i had an adult tooth i could wiggle but not too much....its not a big deal dont worry about it

What makes adult teeth move?
what makes adult teeth move/seperate
What makes adult teeth move?
1.The removal of one tooth. That causes the others to shift.
2. Drug abuse. This causes the teeth to rot and fall out, causing the shift in other teeth.
3. Decay. The rotting of teeth are dangerous and has many side effects. Heart disease and poisoning are just a few.
Reply:There%26#039;s really only one reason. Teeth will shift is there%26#039;s room for them to do so. Why there is room for them to shift is another question.

Gum disease. It can be responsible for your losing most if not all of your teeth.
Reply:Gum disease, loss of bone mass. see your dentist.
Reply:loose gums
Reply:If you have lost teeth or had any pulled and there are gaps in your mouth, the teeth will move to fill them in. That is why it is important to have lost teeth replaced with crowns or caps or bridges.

My top front 2 adult teeth are loose, What should i do???????
I%26#039;ve had braces for well over a year now, and about a month ago i noticed my front top 2 teeth were wiggling. i%26#039;m going to go to my orthadonist this friday just to get everything checked out, but i want to get feedback from some of you fellow guys just to make me know what im dealing with. I know this sounds ridiculous but im frightened im going to loose my front two adult teeth. Are my teeth going to strengthn or just stay like that for the rest of my life???? Thanks!!!!
My top front 2 adult teeth are loose, What should i do???????
i always think my teeth a loose. i have this weird thing about my teeth. for years i thought they were loose, but your roots are way long into your gums and into your head. if you move your teeth with your finger, your tooth int moving its actually the fat in your finger moving, but you think its your tooth.
plus Ive been saying my teeth are loose for over 5 years no9w and they haven%26#039;t fall-in out yet!
Reply:Definitely ask the orthodontist about this. Depends on how much they are wiggling. they may needed to be splinted (glued together with wire) for a time...depends on the serverity again.

Does dental fluorosis in milk teeth continue to adult teeth?
My daughter is nearly three years old. We brush her teeth every night as part of her bed-time routine with a pea-sized amount of Colgate %26quot;Smiles%26quot; toothpaste for 2-6 yr olds. She likes brushing her teeth and does it enthusiastically with me supervising, and then I usually %26quot;finish off%26quot; for her - that is, brush all the bits that she%26#039;s missed or barely touched.
I%26#039;ve noticed over the last week that the top of her front, top teeth (the part nearest the gum) is starting to look mottled and yellowed. I%26#039;m wondering if this could be dental fluorosis? We live in an area with fluoridated water, and try as I might, I simply cannot stop my daughter from sucking the toothpaste off the brush, so I%26#039;m concerned her fluoride intake might be higher than recommended levels.
I%26#039;m aware that if it IS dental fluorosis it%26#039;s irreversible, but of course, these are only her baby teeth. My question is, when she gets her adult teeth through in 3 years or so, will they also be damaged?
Does dental fluorosis in milk teeth continue to adult teeth?
Fluoride can and does affect adult teeth as they are forming. It makes them much more resistant to dental decay.
Whether or not the adult teeth are being affected to the point they are developing fluorosis is difficult to say. Your dentist should be able to advise you better as to whether too much fluoride is beig taken in.
I understand your concerns. I myself used to be a dentist and my daughters milk teeth came early and her front incisor adult teeth ame through when she was only three and a half - early (most kids don%26#039;t get adult front teeth until around 6).
The front adult teeth are developing from the age of about 6 months,( if I remember correctly). This is the time that they are most susceptible to getting fluorosis - ie when developing rater than in the mouth. Whilst the mottling that comes with fluorsis can%26#039;t be %26quot;cured%26quot; there are treatment options available - not all of which are expensive, and most involve minimal use of the drill.
I really would be a bore and advise you to take your daughter along to see your dentist so that he can make a diagnosis as to what the marks on your daughter%26#039;s teeth are. The marks could have been caused by any number of thing s from a fall, to childhood illness or even your health during pregnancy and breast-feeding.
Good luck and hope you get some peace of mind.
Reply:This really sounds like something you need to ask your dentist and have checked out by him or her so you can know exactly what it is, how it needs to be treated, and have all your questions answered. If you are looking for quick answers, you might try webmd.com. Good luck, and I hope it%26#039;s nothing serious.
Reply:It sounds like your daughter%26#039;s hygiene routine is on the mark. The paste that you are using and the amount is appropriate along with your brushing as well (you should brush all of them and do this until at least age 7 due to lack of dexterity and (sometimes) interest on their part).
I think what you are seeing is probably plaque buildup and would suggest that you rub a toothpick gently at these areas to see if it is soft debris. Even as a hygienist I will do this with my son. I brush with him and even use my electric toothbrush with him on low speed. He loves it! Kids always love to suck the toothbrush so don%26#039;t beat yourself up about it!
Other issues to consider - is she drinking fluoridated juices or water regularly, is she taking a fluoride supplement? If the answers are no it is unlikely that she will have fluorosis on the adult teeth. Fluorosis on baby teeth does not mean it will be present in the adult dentition. Sometimes white spotting of the teeth can be caused by other issues, like trauma of a baby tooth causing damage to the adult tooth bud.
Hope that helps!

Would my puppy's baby teeth fall out as the adult teeth settle in?
I have a maltese-shih tzu mix puppy that%26#039;s about 4 months old and I found out recently that he%26#039;s adult teeth are growing in. His adult teeth are growing behind the two front baby teeth and I%26#039;m worried that the baby teeth might not fall out in time and cause a huge problem later on. I think it might be wiggling right now but I am not sure of that either. Is it too early to worry?
Would my puppy%26#039;s baby teeth fall out as the adult teeth settle in?
I%26#039;ve had three shih tzus. The first two lost their baby teeth when the permanent ones came in. The third shih tzu decided to be different. Her baby teeth did NOT fall out. It didn%26#039;t cause her any problems but I was afraid that there would be too much crowding in her little mouth and that it would cause dental problems in the future. I just had the vet pull the baby teeth when I had her spayed. The vet says that while it is pretty rare, some of the smaller breeds do retain their baby teeth when the adult ones come in. It%26#039;s not a big deal to have them pulled.
Reply:Puppy teeth start falling out approx 14-16 weeks of age, and are replaced by adult teeth.. This can take many months til they are all replaced by adult teeth.
Reply:They probably will,but you may want to call your vet.Get a professional opinion.
Reply:If his baby teeth don%26#039;t fall out properly, the vet will want to take them out when he gets neutered in 2 months. Next time you%26#039;re in for his shots, have the vet take a look. He should be having his last round of vaccs any day now, no?
Reply:give him some help...try and wiggle out the teeth. i let my chihuahua%26#039;s just grow in [her baby teeth fell out], but now she has crooked teeth in the front. my poor baby. it%26#039;s kinda cute though, makes her look mean...for a chihuahua. lol.
Reply:You want to consult your vet on this. They may need to do some extractions if the teeth don%26#039;t fall out on their own within the next few months.
Reply:Yes they will fall out all on thier own. We would randomly hear a %26quot;clink%26quot; on the kitchen floor and the puppy would be looking down trying to lick up the tooth. Just make sure you get them from the dog before they swallow them. And yes, 4 months is too early to worry about that. Ours didn%26#039;t fall out until I would say 5-6 months.
Reply:Most of the time they do fall out, but some need to be pulled.
Reply:Most puppies and kittens have a full set of adult teeth by 6 months of age. I wouldn%26#039;t worry until then. If at 6 months of age, he still had deciduous (baby) teeth crowding his adult teeth, the Vet can pull them @ the same time he is neutered. There is usually a additional fee (approx $15-$35) per tooth. If left intact, they can cause problems later on, so if they don%26#039;t fall out on their own, you definitely will want to have them pulled. This is not uncommon and nothing to be alarmed about.
Reply:with small dogs not all of the baby teeth come out on their own, I went to show a 6 month old havanese and found 4 double sets of teeth, he had them all pulled the next week- talking to breeders of other small breeds they find this all the time. So give your pup something semihard to chew on, keep an eye on those stubborn teeth and if they are still there in a month, not moving, see the vet.
Reply:the baby teeth should fall out when the adult teeth grow in. but it is still too early to tell. if you think it will be a problem, go to the vet and they will remove them. dogs teeth are not connected to roots so it is not the same as a dentist pulling our teeth.
Reply:It%26#039;s not too big of a deal. The same thing happened with my brussels griffon. For a while he looked like a shark with 2 sets of teeth in some places. They eventually fell out when he chewed on bones. Give your dog some dental bones, they help. One of two toow almost a year to fall out but they eventually did. The vet wanted to charge me all of this money to pull his baby teeth but they really pose no threat, and they do eventually fall out.
Reply:take your dog to the vet sometime they need to have the baby teeth pulled . I know that my male chihuahua had to have one baby tooth pulled and the root on that sucker was huge and the vet told me that it is not uncommon for some breeds to have to have their baby teeth pulled . good luck .

My teeth have been yellow since i had adult teeth, HELP?
my teeth were white when they were baby teeth, however when my adult teeth came in they were yellow, my doctor told me it might because of medicine during an early age, does any of those whitening products work for me? strips, mouthwash, toothpaste? how bout those hydrogen peroxide and baking soda stuff? or should i just go straight to the dentist do those laser whitening? thanks a bunch!
My teeth have been yellow since i had adult teeth, HELP?
Yellow teeth are caused by a number of things. Smoking is one, drinking a lot of coffee is another and having too much calcium in your diet can cause your teeth to yellow. I would start with the cheapest solutions first and then work your way up to professional treatments. First get the whitening toothpaste and try the whitening strips. If over a two month period of time that doesn%26#039;t make a noticeable difference move up to professional laser treatment or you may even want to consider verniers. Verniers are porcelain caps that go over your teeth. Those can be expensive but totally worth it in the end for your teeth will appear to very white and perfectly straight. It is what all the movie stars have. Washing your mouth out with Hydrogen Peroxide while perfectly safe if you use it too much it will actually start weaking the enamal on your teeth. You can use the Hydrogen Peroxide say once a week but, no more than that. But, start cheap for sure and see what happens. If not then go and get the laser treatments or splurge and go for the Verniers. Ok, I hope this helps and keep on smiling.
Reply:I use the mouthwash
The results aren%26#039;t perfect for me. My lower front teeth seem to be permanently discolored.
Reply:try the laser whitening it is immediate and you know it will work for sure.
Reply:try these products first and get back to us
Reply:get it whitened!! or maybe you just have to brush your teeth often!
Reply:go to the doctor and get them done
so you don%26#039;t have to wait for the results :D
Reply:Here are many ways that you can whitening your teeth!
For home remedies.
Mix baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to form toothpaste. Brush the teeth regularly with this paste. It will remove all stains in a month.
Use bicarbonate of soda 5 minutes before brushing the teeth with normal toothpaste in the morning. This is a good home remedy for teeth whitening.
Rubbing the bark of walnut tree on the teeth helps in removing all stains from the teeth.
Strawberries are considered natural teeth whiteners. Rubbing the teeth with strawberries daily will remove all the stains.
If you would like a suggestion on tooth whitening gel, here%26#039;s something for you!
Crest Night Effects Whitening Gel (about $18.00) allows you to remove stains while you sleep. The tooth whitening system has a fresh, wintergreen flavor. After fourteen days of sleeping with this product on your teeth, you will wake up to a vibrant smile. You should see results in two days, although there are reports of tooth whitening results in one night
