Remedies to strengthen loose teeth

1. Brush your teeth twice daily.
2. Use mouthwash to prevent the growth of bacteria in the mouth.
3. Floss after eating.
4. Use a straw to consume carbonated drinks.

Sometimes the tooth will tighten up on its own in a few days; you can try waiting if you know the cause, but see a dentist if the looseness is persistent or worsens. Chewing and biting on the tooth can make it more loose and cause more injury, so avoid that area for now.

A proper oral care routine of brushing twice and flossing at least once daily can help prevent gum disease, and in turn, prevent tooth loss. Be sure to keep up with regularly scheduled dental appointments so your oral health stays intact.

One treatment plan for a loose tooth is through tooth splinting. Your dentist will attach a splint or stabilizer to the surface of your loose tooth then bond or connect it to the strong teeth near it. This splint will help your ligaments recover and your loose tooth to strengthen.

With the help of a good dentist, a loose tooth can easily be saved in most cases with Dental Implants. However, the chances of a loose tooth getting better by itself are very slim. This is why it is so important to make an appointment with your dentist immediately you notice that your tooth has become loose.

The most frequent cause in adults for loose teeth is secondary trauma from periodontal (gum) disease. Bacterial plaque built up on teeth from poor oral hygiene causes a chronic infection that eventually weakens gum attachment to the teeth. A loose tooth is a late sign of this damage.

However, keep in mind, all teeth (both baby and permanent) are a little, teeny, tiny bit wiggly. This is due to the periodontal ligament fibers (tiny muscle fibers) that wrap around the root of the tooth. Any tooth movement beyond 1mm is not within the normal expected mobility and could be a sign of trauma or disease.

A loose tooth in adulthood doesn’t occur without cause. You may initially notice looseness while brushing or flossing, or your dentist may notice some wobbling during a routine dental appointment.

A tooth which is only slightly loose may well tighten back up itself, though it’s best to consult your dentist in case anyway. You may notice some light bleeding at the tooth, and will need to avoid biting/chewing with it- rather stick to soft foods as outlined above.

Treatment Options. There are a few treatments for loose permanent teeth. One of them is tooth splinting, in which a splint is bonded to the enamel surface of the affected tooth and to that of an adjacent one that’s stable. This allows the area to heal and the tooth to eventually tighten up.

Both turmeric and pepper will work best in treating these loose teeth by reducing the pain and swelling with its anti-inflammatory property. They also prevent the bacterial or any microbes getting into the loose teeth and causing infection with its antibacterial and antimicrobial properties.

Fortunately, a loose tooth does not mean it will be lost — in many situations, a loose tooth can heal, but it usually does not happen on its own. If any of your teeth feel loose, you need to visit the dentist as soon as possible.

The good news is that it may not be too late to save your loose tooth. If you schedule a visit with your dentist as soon as possible, then he can diagnose why your tooth is loose and prescribe an appropriate treatment plan. A traumatic injury to the face or mouth can force a tooth to move beyond the natural slack of its supportive tissues.
