Reply:There are SEVERAL causes of loose teeth in adults and NONE of them are good. There is no home cure or preventive measure for any of the causes of loose teeth that I know about.





You need to see a dentist to find out why your tooth is loose and to get a recommendation for how to take care of it.





My crystal ball and gut feeling are telling me to tell you to be ready for bad news, so be ready for bad news. You have probably let this problem go too long to save your tooth and you probably have several other teeth that are not far behind.
Reply:most cases it is lack or oral hygiene. Lack of flossing will allow plaque to build up around the gumline and in the gumline causing bacteria to be trapped. This iritates the gums and they recede %26quot;extending%26quot; the length of the tooth because the root is becoming exposed (also causing sensitivity since the root doesn%26#039;t have as much enamel as the crown). Plus with the bacteria trapped there it also destroys the bone with which the root is ancored (bone loss) allowing for less tooth stability, hence wobbly teeth. In other cases it%26#039;s a genetic medical problem. Just make sure you floss 2x a day and brush as well, rinse too. What you have lost is not coming back. Gum recession and boneloss is not reversible. Sorry.
