Pain on teeth. To avoid the pain?

Hello sir There could be a number of reasons for loosening of teeth ranging from gum disease to blood sugar or any issues relating to weak bone etc. Mostly the reasons are related to each other and could be cured with timely intervention. SInce the lower teeth are severely loose and makes it difficult to eat food, these could be beyond any repair. But its always easier to prevent teeth from going to such an extent if we maintain them with timely visits to dentist and following their instructions in a proper way. Thus the rest of teeth could be taken care of.

Hi Loosening of teeth may be due to many causes Some are **GUM DISEASE Also known as periodontitis, this disease involves inflammation and infection of the gums. It is usually caused by poor dental hygiene habits. When brushing and flossing do not remove plaque, gum disease can develop. Plaque contains bacteria. It sticks to teeth and hardens over time until only a dental health professional can remove it. Hardened plaque, known as tartar, causes the gums to pull away from the teeth, creating gaps that can become infected. Over time, this process can break down the bone and tissue supporting the teeth, causing the teeth to become loose. Other signs of gum disease include: gums that are tender, red, painful, or swollen gums that bleed when the teeth are brushed gum recession changes in the way the teeth fit together ** INJURY TO THE TEETH Healthy teeth are strong, but an impact from a blow to the face or a car accident, for example, can damage teeth and surrounding tissue. The result may be chipped or loose teeth. Similarly, clenching the teeth during times of stress or grinding them at night can wear down the tissues and loosen the teeth. Many people are unaware of their clenching or grinding habits until they result in jaw pain. A dentist may be able to detect the problem before the teeth are permanently damaged. Anyone who suspects that an injury has damaged the teeth should see a dentist as soon as possible. Sports injuries, accidents, and falls, for example, can cause dental damage. **OSTEOPOROSIS **DIABETES MELLITUS In your case concerning your age you need to check for tartar in your teeth and also check for diabetes mellitus PREVENTION Loose teeth cannot always be prevented, but a person can take steps to reduce the risk.

This is a type of deep cleaning procedure that can treat and help to reverse gum disease. Medications or mouth rinses. These can help infected gums to heal and combat bacteria in the mouth. Surgery. The aim will be to remove inflamed gum tissue and bone that has been damaged by gum disease. Bone grafts. These can help to rebuild bone lost to gum disease. Soft tissue grafts.

If a loose tooth falls out, a dentist can often restore a person's smile with: A dental bridge. This type of crown fits over the teeth on either side of the missing tooth. The result is a bridge between two healthy teeth, connected by a prosthetic, or artificial, tooth in the place of the one that is missing. A dental implant. This involves an artificial tooth and root, which is connected to the jawbone. While these options are effective, it is essential to treat the underlying cause of tooth loss and take any other steps needed to prevent further damage.
