5. Visit Your Dentist: If the tooth is still not coming out, or if you are in pain, you should visit your dentist to have it removed.
Is it OK to pull your own tooth
It is generally not advisable to force a tooth to come out. This can cause severe pain and damage to the nerves and surrounding tissue. The tooth should become loose and pull out with ease when it is ready.
It’s important to start by thoroughly washing your hands before attempting to remove a tooth. Hold the tooth with a clean tissue and rock it back and forth to ensure it’s ready to fall out. If it is, then all you should need to do is twist it slightly, and it should pop right out.
How much force does it take to pull a tooth?
The Benex® vertical extraction system is a new system for extracting teeth that is said to be much easier and less painful than traditional methods. However, a new study has found that the extraction forces required using this system can vary widely, from less than 50N to over 600N. On average, teeth with longer and thicker roots, as well as those in functional occlusion, require higher extraction forces. This suggests that the Benex® system may not be suitable for all patients.
If you have a toothache, you can apply a cold compress to the area to help numb the pain. Apply the ice for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. If your tooth is too sensitive, you can apply the ice to the outside of your mouth near the tooth.

Not only will this be detrimental to your smile, but it can also cause significant (and expensive) problems.
If you have a tooth abscess, you should see a dentist as soon as possible. The dentist will drain the abscess and get rid of the infection. They may be able to save your tooth with a root canal treatment. But in some cases the tooth may need to be pulled. Leaving a tooth abscess untreated can lead to serious, even life-threatening, complications.

There are a few different ways that you can pull a tooth with pliers. The most common way is to use a pair of needle-nose pliers. You can also use a pair of regular pliers, but you will need to be careful not to damage the tooth. If you are able to get a good grip on the tooth, you should be able to pull it out with no problem. If you are having difficulty getting a good grip, you may need to use a pair of slip-joint pliers or a dental extraction forceps. Whichever type of pliers you use, be sure to use gentle pressure and pull the tooth in a straight line.
