Do NOT (I repeat NOT) pull it out. If it's still in, it can be saved. Get to the dentist very soon, though.

If you can move your tooth with your tougue does this mean it is going to fall out?
If it is a baby tooth, then most likely. If it is a permanent tooth you should see your dentist right away.
What do you do in the case of an adult tooth growing in behind the baby tooth before it has fallen out?
Most of the time the baby tooth will fall out eventually. If it doesn't seem to be getting loose, it should be removed by a dentist so it doesn't cause adult teeth to be crowded or crooked.
Is the tooth next to your canine tooth supposed to fall out?

Can an adult ever lost a tooth and then another tooth grows back in its place?
Depending on why you lost your tooth, if you never lost all of your baby teeth (just because you have teeth under your baby onesdoesn't mean your going to lose them (two of my teeth were growing in a way they wouldn't push my baby teeth out and at 17 I got them pulled and within a month they were fully grown in)) and your tooth eventually falls out because of the pressure from the tooth growing under it, or if by chance the tooth that you "accidentally lost" is a baby tooth, AND there is a tooth under it then yes. Other wise no. Go to a dentist. You actually born with tooth buds inside your gums, your milk tooth buds are almost completed forming but the adult teeth have only started. The reason your milk teeth fall out is because the adult tooth bud has finished growing and crushes the root of the milk tooth. Some people are born without adult tooth buds. Count yourself lucky :/
If you have a small cavity in a baby tooth that still has roots on it should you fill the cavity or pull the tooth?
The best thing would be to have a filling put in the tooth. But if the tooth is going to fall out soon, the dentist may recommend pulling it instead. Have it looked at by a dentist and then do what you think is best.Whatever you do don't pull it out yourself. See a dentist its not that bad, honestly..lolFill the ToothPulling a baby tooth too early can cause other teeth to move forward and cause misaligned teeth. It depends on the age of the child and which tooth it is. If the tooth is about to fall out, then pulling the tooth isn't a bad option. Some "baby teeth" stick around until age 11 or 12 or even 13 sometimes, so if it is a young child, pulling the wrong baby tooth could cause severe misalignment. You really need a dentist's opinion on this matter.If this is an adult patient with a retained baby tooth, and the adult tooth never came in, well they should probably keep the tooth because there is no "replacement" on the way.
What about baby teeth that have no adult teeth?
Babies and young children don't have any adult teeth. Baby teeth fall out before permanent teeth emerge through the gum, or if baby teeth have not fallen out before, an emerging permanent tooth pushes the baby one out. In some cases, a permanent tooth can push up either in front of or behind a baby tooth and dental services are needed to remove the baby tooth and to straighten the adult tooth's alignment.
Can your top molar get lose and fall out?
most likely not if it is a adult, or permanent tooth, but it absolutely can if it is a baby tooth and is loose, but it probably wouldn't happen til u r 12, like me!
Does a tooth that is growing in affect a tooth that has a filling?
A new tooth should not affect a filled tooth. If the filled tooth is tbeing replaced it will just fall out and the new tooth takes its place. If the new tooth is adjacent to or opposite the filled tooth it has no effect.
What if your molar tooth half of it falls out?
Well if it is a baby tooth it will be alright the other half will just fall out someday. But if it is an adult tooth Go to the dentist. you do not need to be worried though all the dentist will do is put a cap on it that happend to me but it is quite annoying cause everytime it falls out you have to go back to the dentist and get it recapped but do not worry it is nothing.
What do you do when your tooth is nearly going to fall out and its your bedtime?
If you turn the tooth to the left, and then pull it should pop right out! take a warm teabag and put it over where you lost the tooth, and it will clear out any blood, and sooth the pain of the gum. do not swish water in your mouth, or put ice on it, because that just causes more bleeding. GOD LUCK WITH YOUR TOOTH! <3
How can you tell if a tooth is an adult one?
How old are you? If you are young (under 12 or 13 years old) and if you haven't hit the tooth lately, then it's probably a baby tooth. It is rare for a child to have a loose adult tooth. If you are an adult and have a loose tooth, it could be gum disease.
Will the tooth four spaces to the left of your left front tooth fall out?
