Dear Lybrate user! You are 22 years old. You told" your canine tooth is exfoliating" you have not mentioned about it is permanent teeth or milk teeth. Without examination it is not possible to tell you "whether it is permanent canine or over retained milk teeth" If it is over retained milk teeth then consult with an orthodontist (dental brace Specialist). He can erupt your new permanent canine with the help of dental braces. If the tooth of question is already your permanent canine then it is not possible to erupt a new permanent canine in place of questioned tooth. So you need to save your existing one. For saving your permanent canine consult with a nearby dentist. He/she will examine your tooth and can tell "whether it can be saved or not"

If the permanent canine is present inside the bone, it can be pulled out into its place by braces. If not present and you want to retain your milk canine, avoid eating with that tooth. If it still falls off you can easily get it replaced with a permanent tooth.

If it a deciduous tooth it can shed off. In this condition get a x ray done by dentist to know exact position of permanent tooth.

It is better to visit dentist and have radiograph. Impacted permanent canine can be cause of over-retained milk tooth canine. After radiograph only we can decide about extraction of milk tooth.

You are just 22. It is very important why your your canine teeth are falling. For this x ray is must to diagnose the actual problem. Probably your permanent canines may be impacted and present canines may be milk teeth. This is just I am thinnking. You should consult your family dentist for diagnosis.

If you have overretained deciduous tooth and your permanent tooth is missing completely then there is need to preserve the deciduous tooth for as long as there is no root resorption and shedding. But if you have a permanent tooth present in the bone and has not erupted due to any reason then you need to get the tooth evaluated for removal or traction for moving into its place orthodontically.

Hi lybrate-user, Only a retained primary teeth/deciduous teeth will fall. Permanent canine will not fall. If possible send a picture so that we can help you better. If primary it has to be removed. Need to check with a xray for the permanent teeth position. If the permanent canine is present inside, with the help of an orthodontist, it has to be aligned properly in the oral cavity. Please visit a dental clinic.

Dear lybrate-user, the average growth age of canine is 10 to 12. But in your case I assume your deciduous tooth is retained. So ,if it is not give you any trouble, you can leave it as it is. I advise you to go for OPG (radiograph) and show it your dentist. As he will be the best to judge.

Get x-ray done for the tooth If there is a permanent tooth underlying the deciduous/milk tooth, it might need to be removed. However If such a tooth is ankylosed to the bone, it might not erupt into the oral cavity and you may need orthodontic treatment to bring it into the oral cavity

hey Rashmi, if your canine are milk teeth, than 90% chaes are that you permanent canines would be stuck in jaw bone. You can get a full mouth xray done to confirm your permaneent teeth.
