What to do if adults have loose teeth, and what are the causes of loose teeth in adults?

There are many reasons for thinning teeth, and the first thing to determine is whether the thinning teeth have always been present, that is, they are congenital, or they are slowly aggravated. If the congenital tooth is too thin, it may be caused by the imbalance between the tooth and bone mass during the tooth growth process, and the gap can be completely closed or closed by orthodontic method or cosmetic crown restoration method. If the tooth thinning is caused by the acquired and has a tendency to gradually worsen, then it is necessary to find the cause.

If periodontal disease is causing thinning teeth, periodontal maintenance** should be carried out in time to prevent the thinning teeth from continuing to worsen. If it is some systemic disease, such as periodontal disease caused by diabetes, which causes tooth thinning, it is necessary to carry out the underlying disease, first control the underlying disease, and then further periodontal **, to avoid further aggravation of tooth thinning, and maintain the underlying disease, and then orthodontics** or repair for the case of tooth thinning**.

Tooth thinning can be considered porcelain or orthodontic. But which is right for you depends on the reality of your teeth. If you are considering porcelain restoration, you may want to consider having an all-ceramic tooth.

All-ceramic teeth are a relatively healthy material at present. Metal-free. No dark lines on the gums.

The long-term effect is better. All-porcelain teeth are a type of porcelain teeth.

Correction or porcelain and all-porcelain restoration.

There can be a variety of causes of loose teeth in adults, but here are a few common ones:

1.Periodontal disease: Periodontal disease is the main cause of loose teeth.

Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammation caused by factors such as plaque and tartar in the mouth. If left unchecked**, inflammation can damage the periodontal tissues, causing the tooth to gradually lose its supporting tissue, resulting in loose teeth.

2.Tooth force: If the tooth is hit or struck by an external force, the energy can cause the tooth to loosen. For example, if you are hit by a foreign object in your mouth, or if you accidentally hit your teeth during strenuous sports and activities.

3.Long-term chewing of certain foods: If you regularly eat hard foods such as nuts, hard candies, etc., it can cause your teeth to experience excessive chewing force for a long time, which can damage the supporting tissues around your teeth and cause your teeth to loosen.

4.Misaligned teeth: Misaligned teeth can also lead to loose teeth. If the teeth are not aligned, the force will be unevenly distributed between the teeth, which will cause damage to the tissues around the teeth in the long run, leading to loosening of the teeth.

5.Other factors: Some other factors, such as age of the tooth, smoking, diabetes, etc., can also cause loose teeth.

In short, if an adult's teeth are loose, you need to seek medical attention in time to find the cause and proceed with it**. Keeping your mouth clean and having regular check-ups with your dentist can help prevent loose teeth from occurring.

How to solve loose teeth?

loose teeth;

Tooth loosening is manifested as tooth loosening caused by external impact, gum recession caused by periodontal disease, tooth loosening caused by gum trophic atrophy in old age, and tooth loss in severe cases. Loose teeth, which are medically considered nutritious nutrition of the gums or recession caused by severe periodontal disease, but ultimately boil down to the lack of nutrients to the gums themselves, resulting in recession and loose teeth.

Tooth fixation This method is to use a tooth fixator to make a fixation between the loose teeth of a good tooth, which is actually not advisable because the good tooth will also loosen. It can only achieve simple fixation, and it has no effect on loose teeth.

Toothmobility, also known as tooth shaking, is a condition in which a tooth loosens by a magnitude of close to or more than 1mm. The tooth is tightly connected to the alveolar bone by means of the periodontal ligament, and under normal circumstances, the tooth is stable and has no clinically detectable movement, and the tooth will only loosen when the periodontal tissue has been diseased or the lesion has progressed to a certain extent. Loose teeth are the most severe manifestations of tooth-related diseases, and the direct causes are root resorption or fracture, alveolar bone resorption or fracture, and loss of connection between teeth and alveolar bone.

The main thing is to pay attention to protection and do not eat hard food. Seek medical attention in a timely manner.

Loose teeth not caused by trauma are generally associated with periodontal disease: For loose teeth caused by periodontal disease, if it is mildly loose, it will return to normal with effective periodontal disease**; If it is moderately loose, at the same time as the periodontal disease, the loose tooth and the adjacent ligature should also be fixed together to reduce the load of the loose tooth and prevent the aggravation of the loose tooth, at which time most of the loose teeth can not be recovered; If it is severely loose, it means that the tooth is loose, that is, the tooth is obviously loose regardless of the up, down, left and right, and the method of extracting the affected tooth is used to avoid increasing the unnecessary burden on the adjacent teeth.

For tooth loosening that occurs during an acute attack of periodontitis or apical periodontitis,** the main focus is to control the inflammation, and once the acute inflammation is relieved, the tooth loosening can also be reduced or disappeared. There are also loose teeth that occur when the occlusal force of some teeth is too large or the occlusal relationship is abnormal, and the occlusal trauma is eliminated after the doctor adjusts the occlusion, the alveolar bone can be repaired by itself, and the tooth can also be restored to a stable state.

Loose teeth**First of all, it is recommended to go to a professional dental department for inspection, because loose teeth are also divided into several types, for example, if it is a loose individual tooth caused by trauma, then the surrounding teeth can be fixed with a periodontal splint and fixed together with the traumatic teeth, so that the injured teeth can get a similar effect to plaster fixation, to alleviate their loosening. But if it is a loose tooth caused by periodontitis, most of it is caused by a whole mouth. At this time, it is necessary to do systematic periodontal**, in addition to the conventional scaling, that is, supragingival cleaning, subgingival scaling is also a necessary operation for periodontitis.

If the results are still not satisfactory, periodontal surgery is necessary to try to alleviate further periodontal atrophy.
