I have had a bad wisdom tooth for a few years. Scared to go to dentist. It has just fell out, no pain or bleeding. Looks like the whole tooth. What should I do?:confused: :(

If you have the whole tooth including root tips then you don't have to do anything other than rinse with some warm salt water for the next 2-3 days to keep the socket clean.

It would probably be wise to see a dentist. It sounds like you might have advanced gum disease if your wisdom tooth fell out. You could be setting yourself up for a heart attack or stroke if your gums aren't healthy.
