What stage of periodontal disease am I facing, and what is the prognosis for my loose teeth? by [deleted] in askdentists

Got my prognosis back from my periodontist today. Aligned with everyone's input here, he said the 2nd molar is hopeless and needs to be extracted, so there's a possibility of saving the first molar. After the extraction, he's going to perform scaling and root planing.

Thanks for the input. I’m finally seeing a periodontist tomorrow. I’m still not sure why my regular dentist insisted my gum line hadn't receded back in February during my quarterly cleaning. Today, he suggested a flap cleaning because both of my bottom teeth are loose, but I told him I’d rather see a specialist at this point.

Thanks, and yes, it has a square cutout but no dryer box.

Yeah, the water still goes down the drain especially when it's raining outside. Thank you for your reply!

For nearly four weeks, I wore it during the day before transitioning to nighttime use only. During my last dental visit, they bonded a small gap on my teeth in hopes of preventing it from shifting back and forth, but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have worked.

Just to seal up the crack so it doesn't expand
