Step 1: Locate the worm
While not all worms are visible to the naked eye, it’s good practice to look around for evidence of worms prior to pulling them out of your teeth. Dark or red spots on teeth are generally a telltale sign that a worm is present; however, if you can’t find anything, don’t panic—worm spotting isn’t an exact science. You might need assistance from someone who has experience with finding and removing worms from teeth. If you have access to dental equipment, such as a mirror or flashlight, they can be helpful tools when looking for signs of worms. If you’re having trouble locating a specific type of worm (i.e., tapeworm), there are several online resources available where you can search for pictures of different types of worms based on their appearance and characteristics. For example, Google Images will provide images based on your search terms; Bing also provides similar functionality through its image search tool.
Step 2: Use tweezers to grab the worm
Grabbing worms by hand is a bad idea, since they can cause infections (and really hurt). If you’re using tweezers, be sure to hold them at a 90-degree angle—otherwise, you may squeeze and damage your teeth. Also: Don’t try to crush or burn off any remaining pieces with floss, salt water or any other treatments. These techniques often don’t work as well as you might hope and could end up making your problem worse. Remember: Flossing daily is your best defense against pesky teeth warms. That said, if one does get stuck inside your mouth...here are some steps you can take.
# How to remove tooth worms: Wash hands thoroughly before starting. Clean around tooth with dental pick or needle under warm running water.

Step 3: Place the worm in mouth alcohol
To start, use a pair of tweezers to grasp each end of your worm. A firm grip is important; worms aren’t actually slimy, but they are coated with dirt, which will make them slippery. If you can’t find tweezers or grabby gloves—or you just don’t like using them—you can place your mouth over both ends of your worm and then bite down hard until it snaps in half (this technique is more effective if you have a strong jaw). Finally, put both pieces into a small container filled with at least 70% alcohol. Screw on the lid and shake for about 30 seconds before setting it aside for five minutes. After five minutes, remove both halves and rinse off any remaining pieces with warm water. Voilà! You’re done!
The best way to avoid these scenarios is by knowing how to clean your teeth properly every day. While brushing twice daily should be enough, there are still times when food gets stuck between teeth or bacteria accumulates. When that happens, here's what you need to do: Floss: It might seem old-fashioned and silly, but flossing really does help keep food particles out of your teeth. If possible, floss every night after brushing so that all food particles get removed before bedtime—and keep up with it every day.
Bonus Tips
The first thing you should do if you suspect that you have a worm is schedule an appointment with your dentist. He or she will take X-rays of your teeth and can give you a more detailed diagnosis of what’s going on, as well as any prescribed treatments. In most cases, dental floss can help remove worms, but there are also specialized products that are meant to tackle different types of infestations. Ask your dentist which is best for your situation before attempting removal at home. He or she may also have special oral rinses that can help fight off specific parasites and disinfect dentures while they’re not being worn, making them less likely to spread infestation into other areas of your mouth. It’s also important to note that some types of worms are dangerous, so it’s vital to get treated by a professional. Don't try to treat yourself without proper knowledge and equipment!
5 Ways To Remove Warms From Your Teeth: If you find one or two warms under your tongue when brushing, then don't panic. Simply use tweezers (not fingers) to gently pick it out and flush it down the toilet. If you find more than two warms in your mouth at once (or over time), visit your dentist immediately.
