What will happen if you get a filling on your wobbly tooth?
Getting a filling on a wobbly tooth can seem like a quick fix, but it may not be the most effective solution in the long run. A wobbly tooth often signals underlying issues, such as gum disease or tooth decay, which might need more than just a filling. If you place a filling on a loose tooth, it may not adhere properly, as the tooth’s structure may be compromised. This can lead to the filling loosening or falling out over time.
Additionally, the filling may not address the root cause of the looseness, like infection or weakening of the tooth’s foundation. In such cases, your dentist may recommend other treatments, such as a crown or even tooth extraction if necessary.
