Loose Baby Teeth
A loose "baby tooth" will normally come out on its own through normal chewing. Occasionally they are swallowed, but that is harmless. If the tooth has not fallen out by the time the permanent tooth erupts, it may need to be removed by the dentist.
Loose Permanent Teeth
There are two usual possibilities: your tooth is fractured, or you are suffering from gum disease that weakens the tissue firmly holding the tooth.
If your tooth is fractured, you would probably feel pain from cold. But when your tooth is loose, the most common reason is your gums. If you are suffering from gum disease, you must get it treated right away before your tooth gets too loose and you would have to remove it. You should consult a dentist or a periodontist (gum speacialist) who will start with a tooth scaling and maybe a curetage depending of how advanced your condition is.
In rare cases, diseases or medications can weaken the bone that anchors your tooth. The living root is the important lifeline that keeps a tooth healthy, and damage to the bone or the root can make a tooth less rigid.
Your dental professional is the best person to consult on tooth problems. You should avoid any delay that can allow a bad situation to become worse.

∙ 12y agoWell, the first thing you should do is call your orthodontist's office and he/she can book an appointment for you and get it fixed. You should never try to do anything to it, cause if you do it can cause you to have braces a lot longer than you want.

What are the negatives of keeping a baby tooth that doesn't have a permanent tooth coming in behind it when the person has braces on?
I used to have braces and faced the same problem. Instead of putting a bracket on that baby tooth, they justleave the wire that connects the brackets near the top of the tooth. After you lose the baby tooth and the new one growns in, a bracket will be glued on.
