Is this normal? (Dentists please answer)

One of my sister's teeth just randomly got loose out of nowhere. 5 minutes later, she pulled it out. 10 minutes after that, another one of her teeth got loose and then she pulled that out. Is this normal? Does she have some kind of zombie cancer?

I would suggest you seek medical attention. Loosening of teeth can be caused by a gum disease. Teeth are kept firm by the tooth bones, having a hard tissue foundation and also the gum support.

I don't think it's normal...Go to a doctor or dentist!!!...She could have been exposed to some type of radiation.

Is she 6 or 22? Has she always cared for her teeth up until now? Has she been sick, injured or been a drug user? These are the types of questions a doctor or dentist would want to ask and that is who she needs to see.
