Our solutions for loose teeth
Scaling and root planing
Deep cleaning that removes bacteria under the gums and helps stabilize teeth affected by gum disease.
Gum grafting
Restores protective tissue around teeth, improving support and reducing sensitivity from recession.
Splinting and bite adjustment
Stabilizes loose teeth and corrects forces from grinding or misalignment.
Loose teeth FAQs
Is a loose tooth always an emergency?
Not always, but it’s never something to ignore. Even mild mobility can be a sign of gum disease or other structural problems.
Can a loose adult tooth tighten back up?
In most cases, professional treatment is needed to stop or reverse the issue. Rarely, mild trauma-related looseness may heal on its own, but an exam is always recommended.
What happens if I do nothing?
Delaying care can lead to worsening mobility, bone loss, and eventually tooth loss. Early intervention gives us the best chance to save your natural teeth.
Will treatment hurt?
Most treatments are comfortable and minimally invasive. We use gentle techniques and offer sedation options if needed, so you can feel relaxed throughout your visit.
