Though the most common reason for a loose tooth in adults is periodontal disease (gum disease); trauma, bite injury or tumor can also cause teeth mobility. Certain amount of tooth mobility is always present and it is natural, as the teeth are not fixed tight in their sockets.
Wisdom teeth are often removed because they either donât fully erupt from the gums or donât erupt at all. A partially erupted wisdom tooth can lead to bacterial infection called pericoronitis. Meanwhile, a wisdom tooth that doesnât erupt can lead to the development of a cyst which can damage bone and gum tissue. Wisdom teeth are also often removed because they come in crooked. A crooked wisdom tooth can permanently damage adjacent teeth and throw off your biteâs alignment. Wisdom tooth removal usually only requires a single appointment and follow up, and recovery typically lasts for a few days.
