I think my tooth is loose?!
Question: I have braces. On the top of my left hand side of my mouth the back tooth just on the left hurts really bad and i can't bite down. this has been going on for 3 months. 2 appointments ago at my orthodontist. he told me i probably got food under my gum. Well, Wouldn't it have gone away by now? it really bothers me. do you think it might be loose? (my regular cleaning dentist told me that i lost all my baby teeth.) Help!???!

i really dont think its loose, because it takes alot to make a permanent tooth loose. i woud ask the orthodontist again though if i were you.
why dont you go see a regular dentist?
maybe a cavity or something?
