Is a loose tooth normal?

Q.
Hi, my second from back tooth is slightly loose and I can move it with my tongue. It doesn’t hurt so I am thinking it could just be nothing. I am 15 and wisdom teeth are coming through. Is this loose tooth normal??

Dear Enquirer,
Loose teeth are not normal. Please have your teeth and gums assessed with your dentist so you can put your mind at rest.

Hi my lower tooth near the front has really started to hurt, i cant eat or drink on that side of my mouth. Ive noticed a slight wobble with the tooth. Do you think i will lose the tooth or could it be infected causing the tooth to wobble? Ive just registerd with a dentist but im unable to be seen till the 3rd of Feb. Also i really want comestic work on my teeth is there a dental plan or help i can get to pay in instalments as i hear it can b expensive?

My problem is a protruding lower tooth that has been pushed forward over teh years, it appears to now be pushing my top tooth and i’m concerned if i leave it I’ll end up with crooked top teeth as well, I have already had a consultation but only for a fixed brace I wondered if your advice would be. I will eagerly await your respose.
