Could be a periodontal condition. Go see your dentist! READ MORE
How should I select my toothpaste?
All toothpaste that has ADA seal are acceptable. I recommend a lot of brands containing stannous fluoride, which is good for the gums and lessens sensitivity. READ MORE
Are electric toothbrushes any better for the teeth?
Generally speaking, yes. Make sure you get a quality brush like oral- b or sonicare. These are rechargeable and very reliable. Brushing technique is still important, as well as duration and frequency of brushing. But remember to floss because no toothbrush reaches completely between the teeth! Also waterpiks are great!

Adult tooth is loose. What should I do?
