Tooth hasn't came out. been almost 2 years!?!


Question: Tooth hasn't came out. been almost 2 years!.?
ok so wen i was 15 i still had alot of baby teeth. so the dentist took them out 3 at a time (i had about 9 baby teeth in all). so the last one he took out was my top left canine tooth. and this was in january of 2007. all my other teeth hav came out except that one. it is soo annoying because i cant smile like a normal person because it looks wierd.

so my question is how much longer am i going to have to wait.?.? and is there anything i can do to make it come out faster.?.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Arrange for a panoramic X-ray (OPG) and go to an orthodontist for an opinion. Don't wait any longer.
It is not uncommon for upper canine teeth to become stuck (impacted), and it may require orthodontic help to pull it down into alignment. Do this ASAP, because as you get older, it is less likely to move into place, even with orthodontics.Health Question & Answer
