Hi! today is the 7th day of my braces and I noticed that my lower lateral incisor is mildly shaking, i am a bit nervous and conscious with that woobly tooth. is it normal? and what should i do?
Rest assured that some mobility is normal during orthodontic movement, especially on the lower incisors. Please point it out to your treating provider so that they can monitor and check your teeth.
By visiting your general dentist every six months, you are doing your part to maintain the health and longevity of your teeth. General dentists will take X-rays and do clinical exams as needed. Your orthodontist is also a dentist, with additional training in orthodontics. They will also be on the lookout for any potential problems.
Thank you for the information but today I’ve just got braces and my front teeth are more wobbly than before it also hurts should I be concerned or is it normal?
The first few days after starting orthodontic treatment is the hardest. This video may help explain why teeth may feel mobile: 🔎 How Teeth Move: ruclips.net/video/d991Z2JOhFk/видео.html
I have done treatment for Bimaxillary Protrusion using fixed orthodontic treatment for 4.5 yrs.During the treatment, I felt some pain and mobility in lower anteriors and thought it is normal during the movement of teeth.Recently, my braces are removed 1.5 months back, My lower anteriors are still in mobile condition and my dentist said it will be normal in 1 month. In OPG, Mild bone loss is there. Is this condition can become normal in few months?
Great question. Some lower incisor mobility can take up to a year to stabilize. It depends on your periodontal health. This video helps to explain how teeth move biologically: ruclips.net/video/d991Z2JOhFk/видео.html
I have aligners and my right front tooth has been shaking too and also one of my bottom front teeth but I think it’s normal considering your teeth are being moved to a different position , it will tighten back up 💯
Hello, I've been worrying lately about my teeth because after I just wakeup in the morning my front teeth are all wiggly and loose, I've went to the dentist for this problem but they said my teeth are fine. This has been happening for the past 7-⁸ months.
My front teeth are wiggily asf. It’s been 2 weeks since I got braces I still can’t eat in the front or out to much pressure on the front teeth but my back teeth are fine. I will update you all next appointments just remind me please
hey i hope you have less pain now and your teeth are less wiggly some of my teeth were wiggly as well it's normal so dont worry and for the pain i actually couldn't eat for 1 month and a couple of days but now everything is wayyy better so again dont worry it'll be fine :)
@@r.k5689 they feel better but I still can’t eat hard foods with my front teeth because they still hurt but they are no longer wiggily it’s been 2 months
How do you know if the loosening of the teeth is a normal amount? I will go 9 1/2 weeks from the time I received my trays to my follow-up appointment with my orthodontist. I’m on tray #4 right now.
You wouldn’t know unless it’s significant. Unusually less than 0.5 mm is fine. Class 2 mobility is more than 1 mm of movement and that’s cause to slow things down.
Thanks for your response, Dr. Bailey. I may need to call my otho’s office to see if I can send them a picture somehow. I don’t know how much space I have compared to before, but I do know my teeth feel loose.
It depends. Some mobility is normal with orthodontic treatment. The best thing to do is to ask your dental provider because only they have access to your chart and can do an exam. You may find the video “how teeth move” to be helpful in understanding the process.
I Deff have to say 10 days switch work best for me. Every time I switch to the new tray i feel my teeth loose then by after a week they no longer move as much then I’m just good at day 10 but i should do more then 10 days
I got my braces 1.5 weeks ago. But one of my incisors on one side and one premolar on other side, both upper, are shaking. I am scared they will get hurt and fall out. It is normal for teeth to move within first two weeks? I am 20 yrs old.
Teeth start to move within the first 3 days of starting treatment. Some minor mobility is fine and normal but not excessive mobility. Only a clinical exam with your doctor can tell you which is which.
Can osteoblast (bone rebuilding) phase correct minor bone loss around teeth? And if so, what things could we do to increase chances of that happening? Thanks.
Interesting question. New bone formation can be brought forth by moving teeth. It usually involves multidisciplinary team approach between ortho, perio, and general dentist. Here’s an example: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5343651/
Very informative, thank you! You mentioned potential tooth loss, and I have seen other videos/posts about this terrifying prospect (usually from off brand aligners). I have noticed that people mentioned experiencing more pain than usual when that happened. What would say would be an acceptable amount of orthodontic pain during treatment, and what would be a sign that something bad was afoot?
Glad it was helpful. Everyone experiences pain differently. By visiting your general dentist every six months, you are doing your part to maintain the health and longevity of your teeth. General dentists will take X-rays and do clinical exams as needed. Your orthodontist is also a dentist, with additional training in orthodontics. They will also be on the lookout for any potential problems.
I was being dumb and purposely loosened my perfectly healthy tooth and it now has a little wiggle to it and was wondering if it will tighten back up fully if I leave it alone. I find myself wiggling it once in awhile.
Healthy teeth without periodontal conditions do tighten up with time, usually a few weeks to 3-4 months. Be sure to check with your dentist if it doesn't.

Okay I won’t ask you anything more after this last question sorry. Is it possible for it to not be able to tighten up if I’m fidgeting with it like every 2 or 3 days by moving it a little then when I bite down there is like a clicking feeling. Wondering if the ligaments wouldn’t be able to heal back up or something of that nature… it barely moves but there is some play in it…
What kind of tooth pain is normal? I'm 5 days into tray 5 and up until now I really haven't had any pain but today I've noticed a sharp pain in one of my front teeth. It doesn't hurt at rest but if I hit it or the bite ramp when speaking a sharp pain goes through my tooth. Not sure if I should be concerned :(
Pain can be a very subjective. Some patients do experience some sharp pain when biting on hard objects. If the pain doesn’t dissipate in 3 days, contact your orthodontic office.
I fix my braces 😬 10 days ago but before that my orthodontist told me my bone 🦴 are wick and it's takes two chances. It might work and might not work. And I might end up loosing my teeth. Since he gave me choices I took the risk, he said after one month before he will know if to continue with the brace or not. I hope it's works and my braces don't hurt at all and am worried about that. This is something I wanted badly for my whole life, now I got the money to fix and it's end up in choices very sad 🥺 but I believe it will work.
Some mobility is normal in orthodontic movement but if you have any concerns, be sure to point it out at your next ortho visit or schedule an appointment with your dentist. Good luck with your treatment.
Hi, have used invisalig for 20 weeks now, and we are moving the teeth nr 10 very much, and I woke up today and if I pressed on the teeth a little hard with my finger i could see the teeth move a little bit. Is this normal?
Hi, My upper right central and lateral incisor have had some root damage from a canine stuck in my gum, they are both very slightly mobile , I have braces on and I need to decide to carry on with treatment and extract a premolar for space, but if I continue will the mobility increase and what are the chances of losing those 2 teeth?
Your concerns are legitimate and worth exploring. Please have a conversation with your treating orthodontist as they are the only ones who have access to your records and can provide you with the risks, benefits, and alternatives.
i have a carriere motion appliance for a class II bite and i noticed one of my canine teeth has gotten pulled downwards and is a little wobbly. is this normal?
I have short roots in my front teeth, is it normal for those teeth to be loose during braces treatment? I’m not sure if I should be worried or see my orthodontist.
Some mobility is normal with orthodontic treatment. Short roots are more susceptible to mobility. Excessive mobility should be closely monitored by your orthodontist.
Hi, I’m currently in braces and my band fell off my bracket and now it’s pretty loose and it feels really weird. My ortho is closed and I can’t get them to fix my band and I don’t know what to do. My teeth hygiene is really healthy and it’s only on that tooth and I can kind of wiggle it with my tongue. Anyone know if it’s temporary or now a big deal?
Yes, mild mobility is a normal finding when undergoing orthodontic treatment. There are different classifications of mobility and class II mobility or higher should be monitored very carefully.
I just got my braces on two days ago and I have a tooth that feels like a lose tooth. Is this normal? I am almost 16 so I should have all my adult teeth.
Hi, I'm in bracers for 6 weeks now to close a gap between my front teet and I noticed that my upper incisors are mildly shaking. Also it's closing with a triangle gap
I got my braces yesterday and my 2nd molar (I'm not sure of its name) but one of the back teeth at the bottom is kind of moving like when I touch it or push it with my tongue I feel it kind of moving like it's the only one like that is that normal?
@@averyfinly842 maybe now they aren't moving but anyways I've had my braces on for 4 months now and my teeth look way better already there's no movement at all sometimes there is but it isnt as much as the beginning and I asked a lot it's completely normal so you dont have to panic :)
I am having braces since 3 months. Yesterday I felt one of my molars on which molar band was on was a little bit shaking and others a too but negligible. I am really worried because it is a molar. Is it normal??Please help
Some mobility during orthodontic movement is normal and part of the process. Definitely point it out to your provider to be sure at your next appointment.

I woke u this morning and the tooth next to my top right tooth is slightly loose and hurting. I don't know why this happened but I'm supposed to get braces around December I think but would it be a good idea to get them sooner. I had them around 6 years ago for my overbite but they didn't help and my teeth are back to the beginning stage.
thanks i noticed my teeth shaking i was shocked i thought i was the only one

This makes me so nervous! My trays should get to my orthodontist in about 2 weeks. But what if they missed something with my gums??? 😬😬😬

I love your videos! If I am at risk of having loose teeth, will my orthodontist take X-rays more often during my orthodontic treatment?
Yes, we take PAs (periapicals) rather than panos to see in more detail.

This is my first day of braces and my top and bottom front teeth are shaking. Even if I bite slightly I can feel pain. Please tell
Teeth can feel very sore (and painful) the first three days. Soft foods and OTC pain relief should help. Hang in there.
Thanks a lot for replying 👍

Please let your parents/guardian know and they should schedule you an appointment to see the dentist for an evaluation.

It’s normal to experience some mobility. Please contact your provider with any specific questions if you’re concerned. Good luck with your treatment.

I have a question tomorrow I have a orthodontist appointment and my tooth is wiggly and I don’t know if it’s a bad thing or not and I have braces too
You should mention it to your orthodontist at your appointment.
I’m really scared it’s day 3 of my braces and my teeth still hurt and I felt my teeth move will my teeth come out 😔
It usually gets better after day 3-4. Watch the video How Teeth Move to understand the topic. It should calm your fears.
I have braces and I mistakenly hit my teeth and it hurts for 2 days.. is it ok?
Hope you are feeling better. Trauma should be looked at by your dentist. They will check for swelling, chipping, and other signs of problems.
Hello, The first few days I had my braces my teeth were loose but now its like the 5th day and my teeth aren’t loose anymore is that normal?

What happened? Is your tooth still good ? I hope you are fine
This happened to me and my ortho told me to get a cotton ball and bite down and that should lock it back in
