probably mild gingivitis from lack of brushing!.!. it's common with loose teeth because you're reluctant to brush it!.!. just use listerine and when you lose the tooth and the new one grows in, brush it wellWww@Answer-Health@Com
Yes, I agree you need to get to your dentist!. You may possibly have an infection!. I work as a dental hygienist and have seen this before!. Legally, I can't diagnose but I can tell you it's not normal!. Take some pain meds, preferably an anti-inflammatory such as Ibuprofen, until you can get to your dentist!. You will be fine until you can get in, don't wait too long though!. I hope this helps!. Let me know if you have anymore questions and I'll try to answer to the best of my ability!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
