Sir , I am Chandra Bhanu Panda. I am 53 years old .One of my teeth in the right jaw is shaking. I am feeling pain when eating.I am not giving more pressure on it while taking food. it seems that it may be broken at any time . I do not have any bad habit like chewing tobacco or teeth injury.Please suggest how to fix the issue.

Ans: Hello Chandra
Teeth do break/fracture often at or just below the gum level. When this happens they shake and hurt when you bite on them. But the broken portion may not actually fall out because it could be still attached to the gums.
If this is the case the only solution is to have it extracted and then replaced by a bridge or implant.
The other (more common) reason for teeth shaking or hurting is infection in the tooth itself or in the gums and jawbone surrounding and supporting the tooth. This can usually be reversed with proper treatment.
Your dentist can diagnose the cause and recommend the correct way forward.
