I can't believe I'm writing this, I'm 31 years old and I have a loose milk tooth at the front. What can I do to keep hold of it?

[FluffyBunnyGoneBad]

I'm not due to see the dentist for another few weeks, the tooth is still there as there is no space for the adult tooth to move down but I think it's becoming loose. I'll look really silly with a gap in the front of my mouth and it will cost me a fortune to have all the work done to bring the adult one down as I'll need a brace. HELPPPPP!!!!!

Google is an evil thing!
I'm still waking up with cramp/tingly feet so it's not 100% better, my legs are a bit wobbly when I sneeze but it's so much better then it was. I can concentrate now, I can't remember the last time I didn't feel lethargic. It's odd but nice. Thankyou for remembering

fluffybunny get to a dental hospital they might help you

Oh, what would they do? I think the nearest one is 30 miles away.

My ds has really bad ortho probs the ortho we saw was crap wasteoftime unable to help so out of desperation I emailed the dental hospital they use patients for students to learn on - as a result my ds is now wearing a non nhs brace at 2.5 k and has peridontal surgery onsite all free!!.

They offer clinics for people with emergency dental probs and also will use people with 'unusual ' things as study aids - cant hurt to try can it?

If you could see my ds teeth after just a year of being at the hospital you would be stunned and i can see why people pay serious money for this.

we travel 15 miles to our sometimes as much as 3 times in a week,mostly its monthly though.

Hmm. Interesting. I could try. Thankyou

someone dh knows still has all their milk teeth, the adult ones are up in the gum but the milk teeth just never came out! The dentist just said to leave it.
I had one of mine taken out in the end as it had such a long root and would never come out on its own. Then the adult tooth wouldn't come down, had to have an op and a brace! I was still under 16 though so it was all NHS.
