    Many people should have experienced that biting themselves during eating, or even biting them very much, will get mouth ulcers! Old people often say that they are hungry and want to eat meat, but now people are not short of meat to eat, and even bite themselves while eating meat, why?

    If your teeth move when you eat, it is normal to bite yourself occasionally, but you should pay attention to biting your cheeks repeatedly for a long time. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed that this is related to the body being too weak, especially young people, accustomed to staying up late and working overtime, long-term lack of sleep will bring many dangers to physical health, such as dark circles, ** melanin deposition, lack of energy, frequent yawning, etc., the entire nervous system is affected, and it will also implicate the masticatory muscles in the mouth to a certain extent. In the early stage of mouth ulcers, the cheek muscles are swollen and it is easy to bite the cheek muscles to form ulcers.

    If you are in the old age, biting your tongue is accompanied by difficulty swallowing food, crooked mouth and face, numbness of one side of the body, nausea and vomiting, etc., which is likely to be a symptom of stroke. According to relevant surveys, the risk of stroke increases by about double that of people after the age of 55 for every 10 years of age. Whether it is cerebral vascular stenosis, affecting cerebral blood circulation, **, or cerebral blood vessel rupture, when the body has other symptoms, it is also easy to affect the brain nerves.

    When there is a very short period of hypoxia in the brain, it will affect the nervous system to a certain extent, and when people chew food, they will bite the oral mucosa and tongue before they have time to react.

    If you bite yourself repeatedly when eating, and you can't find out the reason, then you need to go to the hospital for relevant examinations in time to avoid more serious cerebral infarction and sudden death, which is not conducive to physical health and personal life.

    Our body is a precision machine, no matter what kind of signal the body gives, I hope you pay enough attention!

    One is because the speed of chewing food during meals is too fast, and the other is because the brain will affect the nervous system after a short period of lack of oxygen, and if the human body has no time to react, it will bite its tongue and lips in the process of chewing.

    If you are in the same place every time, you should pay a little attention to the possibility that there may be a problem with your teeth and bite.

    1. The occlusal relationship between the teeth is not goodIt also has an impact, Chen Yaozhong, deputy chief physician of the Department of Stomatology of Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University, said that if you bite your teeth tightly, the upper teeth are wrapped around the lower teeth, so that the tongue is safer. However, some people have small upper teeth arches, and such people have a greater chance of biting the base of the tongue. In this case, I usually wear braces for a period of time, and I need to adjust them.

    In addition, some people have an enlarged tongue or uneven tooth wear, which makes the tongue more likely to be bitten.

    2. If an elderly person frequently bites his tongue when eating, then he should be extra careful. In medicineThere is a disease called "lacunar cerebral infarction", and its early symptoms are the symptoms of biting the tongue. Tongue biting is caused by a local infarction of the brain, which compresses the cranial nerve, making the tongue unable to move flexibly, and is often bitten by the teeth during chewing.

    Lacunar cerebral infarction mostly occurs in the elderly with hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes, and the elderly should seek medical attention if they find that they often bite their tongues, or are accompanied by dizziness, headache, unsteady walking, slurred speech, etc.

    Tooth malocclusion mainly refers to the misalignment of the midline of the maxillary teeth and the midline of the mandibular teeth, and the side of the mandibular teeth is inverted, which not only affects the appearance of the teeth, but also has a great impact on the normal function of the oral cavity, as well as the health of periodontal tissues and oral hygiene.

    Causes: (1) Premature tooth loss: there will be insufficient gap, resulting in crowding and misalignment.

    2) Bad habits: habitual finger sucking and tongue licking. Lip sticking, biting, jaw extension, poor swallowing habits, and hemi-chewing habits can cause various malocclusions.

    3) Extra teeth: Extra teeth can cause morphological and functional disorders of the dental and jaw systems.

    4) Congenital tooth loss: mostly due to developmental and embryonic reasons, and the loss of third molars is mostly due to germline degeneration.

    5) Retention of primary teeth: Individual teeth do not fall out within the time limit as residual primary teeth, which can lead to the obstruction of the eruption of secondary permanent teeth and ambush, or misplaced eruption.

    6) Insufficient wear of deciduous caninees: Because the food eaten by children is too soft, some deciduous canines are not as worn as other teeth, so they are higher than the occlusal surface of the dental arch, resulting in early contact, causing anterior or lateral movement and forming a crossbite.

    There are many reasons for eating meat in the mouth, and it is necessary to give the corresponding **:

    Clause. 1. If it is due to inflammation of the tissues in the mouth that causes swelling, so that the meat in the mouth is bitten when eating, the oral inflammation should be carried out, such as gargling, keeping the mouth clean and hygienic, and even giving corresponding anti-inflammatory drugs, after the inflammation is controlled, the problem of biting the meat into the mouth can be solved.

    Clause. Second, if it is caused by the meat in the mouth being too full, there is no particularly good plan for the time being.

    Clause. 3. If there is a problem with the alignment of the teeth and the bite of the teeth, it is necessary to consider orthodontic methods to correct the teeth, and re-change the arrangement of the teeth and the occlusal relationship, so as to solve the problem of biting the flesh in the mouth when eating.

    I always bite my lip when eating, and the following reasons are common:

    1. The dentition is not aligned, and the occlusal relationship is a relationship of deep overbite and deep coverage, and it is easy to bite the lip. After orthodontic alignment and the overlay relationship is restored, it does not happen.

    1. Poor occlusal relationship is often due to the fact that some teeth are arranged outside the dentition because of the uneven alignment, so that when biting, the teeth arranged outside the dentition will often bite the lip or buccal mucosa.

    Second, there may be some ectopic impacted wisdom teeth, the most common is the upper jaw wisdom teeth with buccal impaction, when occlusing, the buccal impacted wisdom teeth can bite the buccal mucosa.

    3. It is possible that the body is relatively obese, and there is a tissue structure called buccal fat pad under the buccal mucosa, which is a fat tissue. In the case of obesity, the buccal fat pad also increases in volume, so that it bites into the buccal mucosa when biting.

    Some people often bite the buccal mucosa when eating, which is mainly caused by poor occlusion between the teeth in the molar area. Orthodontics** or ectopic impacted wisdom teeth can be removed. If there is a buccal impacted wisdom tooth, there is a risk of biting the buccal mucosa during the bite.

    There are also people who do not have wisdom teeth, but the teeth in the molar area have a poor occlusal relationship, and there is a deep coverage, or even a lock jaw, that is, the teeth of the upper jaw, or the teeth of the lower jaw are obviously outside the dentition, and the teeth beyond the dentition will bite the buccal mucosa when biting. If you often bite the buccal mucosa while eating, it is recommended to go to the dental department of a regular hospital for examination as soon as possible. If the wisdom tooth is buccal impacted, it can be extracted, and if the occlusion is poor, orthodontics** can be performed.

    Through orthodontics**, the teeth outside the dentition are returned to the dentition, and a good occlusal relationship is established, so that the buccal mucosa is no longer bitten.

    Ordinary people will say that this is the reason for gluttony. In fact, this is because the oral nerve is not sensitive, so if the cheeks do not react quickly when eating, they will be bitten. So it is recommended that you can eat something to clear the heat and remove the fire. For example, honeysuckle and the like.

    When you are particularly hungry, you will have a "quick mouth" when eating, and the masticatory muscles will instantly tense and dislocate parallel to the biting muscles, that is, you will feel the meat of the cheek raiser "run" between the upper and lower teeth, and you will bite it. There is also a tendency to laugh while eating, which is also prone to this phenomenon. In addition, biting the tongue during eating is usually due to lack of rest, and the nerves are unable to control the muscles normally for normal chewing activities.

    Therefore, in the case of biting your tongue when eating, you must pay attention to rest.

    01 It is mainly caused by abnormal tooth bite, eating too quickly or liking to talk during eating, habitual chewing on one side, excessive stress or lack of sleep, or stroke.

    In general, there are several reasons why you bite your tongue while eating.

    1.Abnormal occlusion of teeth. You can let your mouth relax.

    Bite your upper and lower teeth together and look in the mirror again. Normally, we clench our teeth, and the upper teeth are usually wrapped around the lower teeth, so that the tongue can move more space. However, some people have smaller arches in the upper teeth, causing the lower teeth to cover the upper teeth, and the space for the tongue to move is greatly reduced, which increases the probability of biting the tongue.

    But don't worry, such teeth can be corrected by wearing braces, and the bite of the teeth is normal, so it is not so easy to bite the tongue.

    2.Eating too quickly or liking to talk while eating. In fact, most people are for this reason, or how to say "food is not talking".

    When eating, the tongue stirs and helps with chewing, but when speaking, the tongue plays a role in supporting pronunciation. If two things are done at the same time, the tongue can't cope with it at once, and it is easy to be bitten.

    3.It is customary to chew on one side. Some people habitually chew food with one tooth for a long time, so that one side of the tongue will become hypertrophied and the other side of the tongue will atrophy, resulting in asymmetry on the left and right sides of the tongue.

    4.Excessive stress or lack of sleep. In such a state, the human nervous system cannot control the chewing activity of the muscles normally, so it will often bite the tongue when eating.

    5.It may be a precursor to a stroke. Because a stroke can damage the nerves that control the movement of the tongue or masticatory muscles. This situation is more serious, but it is more common in the elderly. As a result of a stroke, the mouth and tongue are unable to move flexibly, making it easy to bite the tongue.

    So in order to avoid biting our tongues, we need to eat slowly, and it is better not to talk during meals. If you do bite it, be sure to disinfect and clean it. If there is a blood blister, be sure to bite it open.

    It is also important to rinse your mouth after eating to keep your mouth clean.
