My Tooth Is Rotten And Wobbly. Should I Get This Seen To Straight Away Or Wait Till After My Daughter’s Wedding?

Q.
Hello Dr Hughes. My back tooth is rotten and half fell out years ago. It caused me no discomfort for a long time but now the other half is wobbly and is making me very uncomfortable. What do I do? My daughter is getting married in 2 days and I don’t want to be in pain for that day. The tooth can’t be pulled as I was told a while back my gums need to be cut to get it out. Should I leave it and hope it doesn’t fall out and cause more pain or do I go dentist now? Thanks.

Hello and thank you for writing in. I would always advise someone who is in pain with their teeth to seek out emergency dental treatment. It won’t get better if you leave it and is likely to cause further long term problems if you don’t seek expert, professional help. I would need to see you in person to assess your case in detail and offer treatment options. Try to find someone experienced locally to sort this out. If you would like further information on the various treatments available you can find it through this website. Regards, Mark.
