Hi, I'm a new poster but I've been following this thread for a while and am glad to see it's still active. Before I start with the questions, I just want to say yet again that it is very cool of you to be doing this Popo! There aren't many people who would take the time to answer so many questions on an internet forum.
Anyway, here's my situation. Two of my bottom front teeth are a little loose and have been for several months now and I am not sure what is causing this. I'm very anal about my teeth and brush and floss daily. They aren't so loose that I feel them when chewing or when my teeth are clenched. In fact, the only time I notice the looseness is if I hold the teeth and wiggle them. There's no pain or discomfort whatsoever.
I went to my dentist and told him about my concerns. After examining me he declared that although there was some movement it is nothing to be concerned about. He said it's probably because of my bite and that the front upper teeth are putting a bit of pressure on the lower teeth which is causing the slight movement. Have you ever heard of such a thing happening? I'm not comfortable having loose teeth in my mouth and I'm considering getting a second opinion.
