I am a kid. I have a loose tooth where the part is off but the other part isn't. I can see my new tooth underneath. Should i just suck it up and push with my tongue? It's a bottom left molar

As the new tooth is already there, I suggest "toying with the loose tooth" - especially if it's really loose. Don't wait too long (as in days), but don't rip a tooth that's still stuck. "Fiddling" with it will gradually loosen it. And of course you could always opt for the dentist, but that's probably overkill. – Stephie Jul 21 '15 at 06:01

Hi Aria, welcome to Parenting.SE! This is really similar to a question that was already asked (When to pull loose teeth) so read through those answers to learn more about loosing teeth and when you "need" to pull. Personally, I'd suggest wiggling it as long as it isn't hurting too much — sometimes a little extra help is all it needs to fall out! – Acire Jul 21 '15 at 11:42
