Wiggly tooth bleeding

A loose adult tooth with bleeding can result from gum support loss, injury, infection, or a damaged tooth and needs timely assessment.

Mobility means movement within the socket because the ligament, gum, or supporting bone is affected. Bleeding may arise from inflammation, trauma, or infection.

Apply gentle pressure with clean gauze, avoid wiggling the tooth, and eat soft foods while arranging care.

An adult loose tooth needs prompt assessment, especially after injury or with pain, swelling, pus, or a changed bite.

Ask whether the cause is trauma, periodontal support loss, root fracture, or infection, and whether the tooth can be stabilised.
