Mobile tooth is a indication if infections in the gums and bone..which has resulted in a weak tooth.. As a result teeth is not able to take load... Its better you see a gum specialist (Periodontist)

Hello, you can do warm salt water rinses,but this will give you a temporary relief. visit a dentist and get the checkup done, get an X-ray done to check the bone levels. it is better to get the tooth extracted.
