Hi, Just felt one of my lower teeth wobble. WTF!
I'm 18, and from this picture I reckon it's a lower canine.

Canine - cuspid, it's wobbling like it wants to come out...
Never been to the dentist before to have a filling or anything just check ups, should I be bricking myself?
Cheers!

I'm not a dentist, but having undergone lots of dental work and doing a lot of reading on the subject i'm fairly knowledgeable...
Well knowledgeable enough to tell you to go to a dentists anyway
Provided it's not been knocked recently or it's not in some sever crowding you shouldn't be having any issues with it.
I too didn;t go tot he dentists for many many years (12 till... 23?) and i had half a crown break off one of my molars. There was no point but it was horrible. It happend on new years eve too and i was living in wales at the time where the supply of NHS dentists is laughable. On new years day i got some find a dentist number off the internet where i rang up and they had an appointment sorted for me at a dentists 30 miles away on new years day. It was a private one so i had to pay (£65) but got good friendly service and a tooth coloured filling in it that makes it look like it's good as new,
In my case i think an old filling had allowed the tooth to rot from the inside leaving it looking fine until it collapsed, like i said there was no pain.
In your case it's possible you have a root issue. could be a short root, broken root or even a rotten root. It might also be fine.
Cost wise:
New patient check up (They will check everything just cause well, why not?): £40-60
X-Ray: £15 per side, they might well do both
Filling: £30 - 80
Root filling: £200
Given some onf those prices it;s tempting to put it off, in which case a rescuable tooth may be lost and costs will only go up. Or try and find an NHS dentist. But they seriously don't give a fuck, they will probably give you 2 options, pull it out or fuck off. They will also make you wait weeks for an appointment.
If you're a student most dentists will treat you at about 50-70% of the usual price. I'm poor as fuck yet it's private every time at the dentists for me from now on.
...except for the £3500 of work i'm getting done for free by university dental students  |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 15 years, 100 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
