Teeth Moving Slightly/Shifting/Clicking - After eating?
Hi guys,
i went to visit the dentist today and was informed i have very early stages of peridonatal disease but would be Ok after a deep clean - which i have scheduled.
The problem which is really bugging me, is im noticing my teeth are moving, or shifting slightly, i can feel them with my tongue and its really bothered me, convinced theyre going to fall out.
The dentist didnt really know, and said they seemed OK to him, but i hadnt just eating, so they wernt shifting at the time, either way ive made him refer me, but until then i have a major wait and wondered if anyone else feels their teeth move slightly? Upper front teeth and it varies - from tooth to tooth!
Thanks for reading - ps had braces for years when i was a child - im 27 now.

there is some small amount of movement found in all teeth, but best to see a periodontal specialist/ expert for it to be reviewed
you may also have short roots from your ortho tx which may be complicating mattersDr Nick Fahey BDS (NZ), MCLIN DENT PROS (London), FRACDS, MRD RCS (Edin) Pros, MFDS RCS (Eng)
