Q. For about 5 days one of my top left teeth has been feeling uncomfortable, the gum is tender and im sure the tooth is slightly wobbly. I feel as though i cant put any pressure on it, and i cant chew with it. Im terrified its going to fall out. Im only 20 and really dont want a hole where a tooth should be! It just seemed to happen all of a sudden. Im petrified of going to the dentist, the smell of the latex gloves is enough to make me gag. Do you have an idea of what it could be?
