Tooth pulling for my dad...?

He wants me to pull out his tooth because it%26#039;s loose. He%26#039;s old, so his teeth are going bad. I want to try tying his tooth to some floss and tie the end of the string to a door knob and close. I don%26#039;t want to hurt him, because he%26#039;s kind of sensitive. Does anybody have any suggestions? I told him to drink a lot of milk and swoosh him mouth with it also. Don%26#039;t know if that will do anything, but still, milk is calcium.

Tooth pulling for my dad...?
Even if the tooth is loose, it has roots, these roots won%26#039;t be disturbed by the floss and door knob trick. The only way that the tooth can %26quot;safely%26quot; be removed is by a dentist.





I would strongly recommend you take your Dad to a dentist since the possibility of %26quot;infection%26quot; is high, and if it is infected it can affect his whole body. This tooth may need to be treated with antibiotics prior to any extraction procedure and it may require the tooth be extracted at a later date, after the antibiotics have time to take effect. This way the infection won%26#039;t spread during the extraction and the anesthetic will be effective when used.





I hope I%26#039;ve been of some help and that you will take your Dad in for dental treatment soon. Good luck!





Additional information: Calcium is supplied by the foods we ingest, it can%26#039;t be absorbed by swishing milk in your mouth. If it could we would all have great teeth!
Reply:That is good news, follow the advice his dentist offers to resolve this problem in a timly manner. Report It

Reply:For God%26#039;s sake: take him to a dentist!
Reply:Do you have a specific dentist that you personally go to? Or even that he goes to? I%26#039;d think the best bet would be to simply call and ask them if that would be ok.
Reply:have him rinse his mouth with alcoholic mouth wash for like 5 minutes or until he fells that the inside of his mouth is kind of numb than BANG!!! slam the door!





and after wards have him rinse his mouth with salt water to stop the bleeding quickly
Reply:If I were you I would go to a dentest and ask what you should do. But if you do pull it tie a string to the tooth and pick an umber 1-20? and tell him to count to 20 fast and pull it when you here the number, it won%26#039;t hurt much if the tooth is real loose. you might want to put numbing liquid on the gum.
