Loose teeth occur when the supporting structures around your teeth become weakened or damaged, causing one or more teeth to feel mobile or wobbly when touched or during eating. This dental problem typically develops when gum disease progresses and destroys the bone and soft tissues that normally hold teeth firmly in place, though it can also result from trauma, teeth grinding, or certain medical conditions. Early stages may involve slight movement that's barely noticeable. Advanced cases can cause significant mobility that affects your ability to chew properly. The condition often signals underlying periodontal disease, where bacterial infection has compromised the tooth's foundation, much like how soil erosion can destabilise a tree's roots.
You should seek immediate dental treatment if you notice any tooth movement, as early intervention can often save affected teeth and prevent further damage to surrounding structures. Without prompt care, loose teeth typically worsen over time and may eventually require extraction. At London Dental Specialists, Dr. Ope Sodeinde, our Principal Dentist and Specialist in Periodontics, brings extensive expertise in treating loose teeth through advanced gum disease therapy, bone regeneration techniques, and when necessary, dental implant placement. Our Central London clinic serves patients throughout the greater London area with specialist care designed to stabilise loose teeth and restore your oral health.

Many loose teeth can be saved with prompt, expert treatment. The key is acting quickly. At London Dental Specialists, our periodontics specialist Dr. Ope Sodeinde has successfully stabilised countless loose teeth using advanced techniques. We assess the underlying cause first. Gum disease, trauma, or bite problems often contribute to tooth mobility. Early intervention gives us the best chance of preserving your natural teeth. Sometimes we use splinting to hold loose teeth in place whilst the supporting structures heal. Other times, deep cleaning and gum treatment restore stability. The sooner you seek treatment, the better your chances of keeping your teeth.
Several factors can cause adult teeth to loosen. Gum disease tops the list. When bacteria build up below the gum line, they attack the tissues and bone supporting your teeth. This creates pockets that weaken the foundation. Trauma from accidents or sports injuries can also loosen teeth immediately or over time. Grinding your teeth at night puts enormous pressure on the supporting structures. Pregnancy hormones sometimes cause temporary loosening. Certain medical conditions like diabetes can affect gum health too. Our comprehensive examination identifies the exact cause in your case. Understanding why your teeth are loose helps us create the most effective treatment plan.
Treatment timelines vary depending on the cause and severity. Simple cases might improve within weeks. More complex situations require months of careful management. Initial stabilisation often happens quickly. We might splint loose teeth during your first visit to provide immediate relief. Deep cleaning treatments typically span several appointments over 4 to 6 weeks. Healing takes additional time. Your gums need weeks to months to fully recover and tighten around the teeth. We monitor your progress closely throughout. Some patients see improvement within days of starting treatment. Others need patience as their mouth heals gradually. Our team keeps you informed every step of the way.
We prioritise your comfort throughout treatment. Most procedures for loose teeth involve minimal discomfort. Local anaesthesia ensures you feel no pain during deep cleaning or splinting procedures. Some patients experience mild sensitivity afterwards. This usually subsides within a day or two. We offer sedation dentistry for anxious patients or complex treatments. Our gentle approach minimises tissue trauma. Many patients are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the process feels. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and pain management guidance. Over the counter pain relief typically handles any mild discomfort. Our team remains available to address any concerns about pain or healing.
We recommend dietary modifications whilst your teeth are loose and healing. Soft foods protect unstable teeth from further damage. Avoid hard, crunchy, or sticky foods initially. Think soups, smoothies, pasta, and cooked vegetables. Chew on the opposite side if only some teeth are affected. Once we stabilise your teeth, eating becomes more comfortable. Splints or other treatments provide immediate support. As healing progresses, you can gradually return to normal foods. We provide specific dietary guidelines based on your treatment plan. Most patients resume regular eating within weeks to months. The temporary dietary changes are worth preserving your natural teeth long term.
Treatment costs depend on the underlying cause and required procedures. Simple splinting costs less than complex gum surgery. We provide transparent pricing after your comprehensive examination. Many dental insurance plans cover periodontal treatment for loose teeth. Medical insurance sometimes covers treatment for trauma related cases. We accept various insurance providers and help with claim submissions. Flexible payment plans make treatment accessible. Interest free finance options spread costs over 12 to 24 months. Extended payment plans with reasonable interest rates are available too. Our team discusses all financial options during your consultation. Investing in treatment now prevents more expensive tooth replacement later.
Ignoring loose teeth leads to progressive worsening. The supporting bone and gums continue deteriorating without intervention. Eventually, you'll lose the affected teeth entirely. Adjacent teeth often become loose as the problem spreads. Chewing becomes increasingly difficult and painful. Your bite changes as teeth shift position. This creates additional stress on remaining teeth. Bone loss accelerates once teeth are lost. Facial support diminishes, creating a sunken appearance. Replacing lost teeth costs significantly more than treating loose ones. Dental implants, whilst excellent, require surgery and months of healing. Prevention through early treatment of loose teeth saves money, time, and discomfort. Our specialists help you avoid these complications with timely intervention.
Loose teeth require immediate attention. Don't wait. If you notice sudden tooth mobility, especially following trauma or injury, contact London Dental Specialists immediately on 020 7589 7792. Seek emergency care if your loose tooth is accompanied by severe pain, bleeding that won't stop, or visible damage to surrounding gums. These signs may indicate serious underlying issues requiring urgent intervention.
Adult teeth should never feel loose under normal circumstances. If you can move a tooth with your tongue or finger, this constitutes a dental emergency. Trauma from accidents, sports injuries, or falls can damage the supporting structures that hold teeth in place. Additionally, sudden loosening may signal advanced gum disease or infection that threatens not only the affected tooth but neighbouring teeth as well.
Take immediate action by gently rinsing with warm salt water and avoiding chewing on the affected side. Do not attempt to wiggle or test the loose tooth further, as this may cause additional damage. If the tooth has been knocked out completely, handle it by the crown (white part) only, rinse gently if dirty, and try to place it back in the socket or store it in milk.
London Dental Specialists provides emergency appointments for loose teeth during our operating hours: Monday through Friday, 8:30am to 5:30pm. Our specialist team, led by Dr. Ope Sodeinde, offers advanced treatments including emergency stabilisation procedures and comprehensive care to save your natural tooth whenever possible. Early intervention significantly improves treatment outcomes, so contact us immediately when you notice any tooth mobility.
