See a dentist: This tooth may be dying and need a root canal. Also trauma may be the reason the tooth is moving. The dentist should be able to tell why the tooth is moving with an exam and a radiograph.

Tooth: One thing that may cause the tooth to drop is gum disease-see a dentist soon and make sure they measure around each tooth between the gum and the tooth. Bleeding gums and red, swollen gums can also indicate this problem.

See a dentist!: From the little information given, it sounds either gum disease or that tooth had an abscess. Your best option is to see a dentist, get a complete evaluation of your dental problem and possible treatments. The answers are best given by someone who sees you in person. Don't delay & Good luck!

See your dentist: Have you had any trauma to that area of your face recently? Do you have severe gum problems? It is also possible that an abscess could cause this feeling. See your dentist to evaluate why this is occurring.

See your dentist: If you noticed your front tooth moving and does not feel normal, a dental visit is important to determine why is may be drifting. If there is no history of trama, where you may have bumped your tooth, gum disease may cause you to loose the bone anchoring your tooth. You will need to treat the cause or you may loose your tooth.
