Q

Is it okay to wiggle a loose tooth?

A

Children with primary teeth may safely wiggle loose teeth with their tongue, but should avoid pulling or tugging on a loose tooth, as this can increase the risk of infection. Children should wait for teeth to fall out on their own naturally. Adults with loose secondary teeth should visit their dentist immediately, as loose teeth can indicate trauma, tooth decay, or gum disease.
