No: At 36 you should not have loose permanent teeth. They were made to last a lifetime. This may be a sign of diseased supporting (bone, gum) tissues or a systemic problem, such as diabetes. See your dentist asap to determine the cause of your problem.

No: Baby teeth are one thing, adult teeth completely different. Your tooth may be broken a just a piece is loose. It is always better to let a professional handle this.

Loose tooth as adult: Not sure if it's a primary (baby) tooth with a congenitally missing or impacted permanent tooth, a badly broken or periodontally involved tooth, or an infection. In any case, you need to see a qualified dentist to see what's going on as this is definitely not normal. Even a licensed dentist cannot treat him\herself in this situation.

Visit your dentist: The lack of formal training, education or experience in dentistry may cause complications that are much worse than a tooth problem. If you have a dental problem, call your dentist for a dental care.
