Loose tooth pain , why?

Many middle-aged and elderly people can feel that their teeth are shaking, and they can no longer eat hard food. Some people also feel that their gums are swollen, painful and bleeding, and their teeth are sensitive and painful when they are hot, cold, and sweet...

Everyone will feel that there are more and more things to eat, but less and less things to eat, and loose teeth are really tormenting...

Then, it is very necessary to know about:

Why do I keep brushing my teeth every day and my teeth are still loose and painful?

Although we brush our teeth diligently every day, we can't really clean our teeth thoroughly. Because traditional toothpaste can only clean the surface , it can remove free oral bacteria, but it cannot remove the plaque and calculus that stubbornly adhere to the teeth.

Over time, dental plaque accumulates more and more, forming dental calculus. The bacteria living on the dental calculus will produce acidic substances, which will gradually destroy our teeth, stimulate the gums, and cause the gums to swell and bleed. This is the early stage of periodontitis. symptom.

However, many people do not realize that this is periodontal inflammation, and just treat this symptom as a simple "getting angry", so they will follow familiar operations such as drinking herbal tea and eating gunpowder. These methods are not only difficult to solve the fundamental problem of teeth, but cover up the truth of the problem.

Over time, the more and more calculus accumulates, the periodontal inflammation becomes more and more serious, the gums gradually shrink, the alveolar bone also absorbs and shrinks, and the root of the tooth loses sufficient support, and naturally begins to loosen and shake.

Oral experts said: "Loose teeth are highly contagious, and the speed is very fast! It only takes 3 years for loose teeth from 1 degree to 2 degrees, 1 year from 2 degrees to 3 degrees, and only 3 years from 3 degrees to falling off. It takes half a year. In this process, the adjacent teeth will be 'infected' and become loose, and the loss of alveolar bone calcium will also be accelerated. The loss of alveolar bone calcium is irreversible.

Pain from loose teeth is the main symptom of periodontitis. Plaque and calculus are the initiating factors of periodontal inflammation. Therefore, the key to solving the problem of loose teeth is to remove plaque and calculus.

Oral experts remind: "If you can keep a loose tooth, don't pull it out. There are many receptors (nerves) around the root of the tooth, and their role is to sense the pressure of chewing food, so that we have the 'happy' of chewing. Once the tooth is extracted, the receptors If you don't have it, you won't feel it when you chew. If you keep one more real tooth, you can double the chewing force."
