I'm 34 and have a baby tooth that won't come out! Any advice?!


Question: It is wiggiling and practically hanging there, but it won't come on out!!! I am too chicken to just yank it.... I'm a wimp, I know. What is keeping it connected? It looks like a huge chunk of my gum. It's on the bottom right, next to the pointy tooth (canine?)

LOL! I'm 28 and just had my last baby tooth extracted last week. Actually, I wouldn't even call it an extraction..because my dentist took a look at it, and poked it a couple of times and it popped out on its own. I wasn't even charged for the visit (since he didn't actually DO anything, really).

Whats keeping it in? There might be a tiny bit of the root still left in your gums/jaw. Play around with it with your tongue..and eventually it'll relent and fall out. If its wiggling a lot, its just about ready. Give it another day or two, and you'll have a nice little present for the "tooth fairy."

On a side note...my husband put a $20 bill under my pillow the night after my baby tooth fell out :-) It was hysterically funny, and a sweet gesture all at the same time. Maybe you'll be treated to the same, eh?

Good luck!

hmm go to the dentist! they will definatly take care of it haha.. i bet they would just yank it out (professionaly) and you wont even feel a thing

go 1 round with tyson he is sure to help u take out any tooth u want and if not that try the dentist

for some reason I used to like getting lose teeth and playing with them.

You are 34 and I am a little worry that might not be a baby tooth. having said that, you might want to check with a dentist because replacing a permanant teeth won't be cheap and your dentist will be able to give you more options regarding that if you still have the tooth in your mouth.
