A member asked:
I have a tooth in my mouth and there is another one growing under it but my tooth is not wiggly yet.. should i remove it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See dentist: When the permanent tooth erupts. The roots of the primary tooth are resorbed and it loosens and comes out. Sometimes the permanent tooth erupts without this happening and the dentist needs to help things along by extracting the primary(baby)tooth.
