I knocked my tooth loose nearly two weeks ago eating a cream cracker and it's still loose and sore if i accidentally bite on it, i haven't been able to eat properly. It's a baby tooth, incisor on the bottom, and the other incisor next to it fell out a few years ago. My dentist says the root is really short. Will it likely firm back up still even though it's been nearly two weeks? I don't really want to lose it as I have quite a phobia of dentists, but it's painful if it's knocked and i want to eat properly again.
In terms of treatment my dentist says i'd likely have to have a denture, and she'd send me to be assessed for suitability for implants. I hate the thought of having a denture though, like they move around and i feel too young. Apparently surrounding teeth and the size of the gap mean bridges aren't an option. The thought of having to have dentures is making me even more scared to lose it.
