#1 Post by newmetal »

Elo. Ive been noticing if i put pressure on one of my front teeth the tooth beside it makes a clicking noise? What does that mean? Movement or is it something to be worried about?

Many Thanks

Starts with clicking and then they get wiggly (truly revolting for someone who hates loose teeth) and then they are on their way! They'll be on the move soon :D

I still get clicking once in a while. I love it ! Now my molars are clicking.

I think it is the wire clicking in the bracket...but it definitely means something is moving.
