Hi Tracey, I had that my front tooth was wobbling, still is :eek: basically you need a good clean under the gums, smoking masks gum disease, if you get to the dentist and have them cleaned and treated hopefully the tooth will tighten up, I've had one side done got an appt for the other side in May (which is the side with the wobbly tooth) xxx

Poor you Tracey :(

I didn't suffer from the bleeding gums thing but I know it's a very common quitting side effect. As Max says, it will probably settle down but as Donna says, it's best to get it checked out in case there is underlying gum disease. Your dentist can probably suggest some tips to minimise the discomfort too.

Hope you feel better soon. :)

I went to the dentist this afternoon as one of my teeth has moved a bit and has started bleeding, apparently I have some bone loss and migration, basically I have to brush three times a day, floss after each meal, and use cordosyl twice daily. I am also on some medication which dries out the mouth making bleeding likely so I've also been told to up my water intake - allegedly red wine doesn't count as fluids :( - anyway, if the regimen does not work he is going to fit a kevlar splint and fill where need be - kewel, bullet proof teeth :D

I've looked it up on line, it just looks like a scrap of white material attached to the teeth :(
