[|Human|] I went to the dentist for a deep cleaning because my gum above one of my front teeth had a nasty taste coming from it but its been a week and i can still taste it. My front tooth is now loose and the dentist said its because the post they put in when they did the root canal is short and he said we will have to find out what happens, he couldn t suggest anything for me he just said we will have to see if it falls out. my tooth hurts and im wondering if im gonna need an implant.
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . As per your query it seems that there is formation of the dental abscess due to accumulation of pus below the root tips of the tooth, and it can be a cause for elevation and loosening of the tooth from the socket. You should consult an Endodontist and get evaluated and in case if there is abscess formation you should get the post that is placed in it removed and root canal should be done again. This can help in relieving pain as well as reducing infection and mobility. In case if still there is no improvement and tooth become further mobile extraction followed by Implant placement can be a permanent solution. As of now take a course of antibiotics like Augmenting and painkiller like Ibuprofen for reducing pain and infection. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor.
