I had deep root cleaning on my teeth about 1 month ago, now one of my molars is loose & sore is this common ?

My tooth that is now loose was an "11" score when it was tested for the pockets. Molar was not sore or any problems now after the deep cleaning a month later my molar is very sore and this morning I noticed the tooth is actually very loose. Will I be loosing this tooth ? All my other teeth are fine and they where all 2's and 3's. Thanks

This is not uncommon for someone who has had a deep cleaning. Because you had a deep cleaning, I can easily assume that you have a stage of periodontal disease. During the cleaning, the calculus was removed and it was actually the calculus that was holding the tooth firmly in place rather than the bone. Now that the calculus is gone, the tooth has become loose. Yes, you are better off without the calculus... leaving the calculus would have just resulted in further bone loss. Call your dentist and alert them to the mobility of your tooth.
Reply:Call your service provider immediately and make a follow up appointment. You need this professionally evaluated. When I had this done the same thing happened and one of my molars became infected as a result. BTW, they are responsible for the cost of treatment in such an event.
Reply:sounds like you have less bone now in your jaw. periodontist is a must at this point. maybe need to stimulate gums more and also have a complete deep clean and perio work done. i just had it done. i think the base of the tooth is real weak in this case so see the perio doc.
Reply:This is very normal. Your tooth is this way because they cleaned off the calculus %26amp; tarter that was around it %26amp; since it is gone it has become wiggly. I'd still contact the dental office %26amp; have them take a look at it to see what the recommend be done to this tooth. Good luck.
Reply:You obviously have periodontal disease if you had a deep cleaning and this is why the tooth is loose. If a tooth has a deep pocket and a lot of bacteria built up under the gu line, it is very likely to become loose. you see, it is almost like the build up has the tooth glued in to the socket. You should call your dentist, you need this tooth extracted. This is not their fault and they will not be liable for this.
