Possible Periodontal
I'm 19 years old and i haven't been to the dentist in a long time. Ive eaten a lot of junk food and sugar over the years and it didn't do me any justice. Basically I discovered that my front teeth felt very Slightly Loose. Witch could be periodontal disease. I've made and appointment with a dentist and the earliest time I could get was Monday afternoon I was wondering if that is too late or will I be fine to wait one more day?

Hello
Are you having any pain or any other discomfort? Any history of trauma? If no then u can definitely wait for 2 days. Periodontal disease is a slow progressive disease. It wont make any major change in a day or 2... but this age is little early to lose teeth. Go u to a periodontist as soon u get appointment. At an early age generally periodontal diseases are of aggressive nature.
Next Steps
Go to periodontist
