A member asked:

What could i do to make a loose tooth fall out faster?

See your dentist: Why do you want to remove your tooth? It is best to see a dentist for an extraction. Even if it is very loose it can be quite painful to extract it yourself. God luck.

Wiggle it: If it were a baby tooth, wiggling it will help. You, however, are an adult. You need to see a dentist.
