I just got my braces tightened 2 days ago and one tooth is getting loose and can!


Question: I just got my braces tightened 2 days ago and one tooth is getting loose and can be wiggled?
This was the first time I got my braces tightened. That means the appointment before this one was when I first got my braces on. The tooth that is getting loose and can be wiggled is on my top teeth and part of it is sunk behind another tooth, is that why it wiggles?

Answers:

Your teeth wiggle because they are moving/repositioning. I wouldn't wiggle it/them a lot or they can fall out. Just don't worry about it. Its normal.



Hi
Do not wiggle it, all teeth get slightly loose when under going orthodontic treatment, as they are being moved, just tell the dentist and leave it alone.



Yeah, its ok if it's just slightly wiggly and not a lot. When I got my bottom braces on, some of my bottom teeth were wiggly. And they were because they were moving.
