Q. i’ve just been informed by my dentist that i have a case of gingivitis and that i have experienced some bone loss, now my teeth feel rather loose. I’m really worried! What are the chances that i’ll end up losing my teeth or have to have them extracted? Thank you
A.
It depends on the amount of bone loss. Many people can eliminate the looseness of the teeth through involving surgical intervention and thorough oral hygiene and home care.
