What Should I Do About Loose and Painful Teeth?
The reasons for loose and painful teeth may include dental trauma and periodontitis.
Dental Trauma: If a patient accidentally falls or suffers from external force impact, resulting in dental contusion or direct tooth fracture, loose and painful teeth may occur. It is recommended that patients go to the hospital for corresponding examinations. The teeth can be fixed. If the fractured tooth cannot be retained, the injured tooth can be extracted. Dental implant restoration can be considered after a period of time, which can effectively restore the function and aesthetics of the tooth-missing area.
Periodontitis: If patients do not pay attention to oral hygiene in their daily lives and do not brush their teeth thoroughly, it may easily lead to the formation of dental plaque from bacteria and food residue on the tooth surface, thereby inducing periodontitis. Patients with periodontitis may exhibit loose teeth, pain when chewing, and halitosis. Patients need to actively seek medical attention for periodontal sequence therapy. If necessary, they can take medications such as Amoxicillin Capsules and Erythromycin Dispersible Tablets under the guidance of a doctor. This helps alleviate the symptoms caused by periodontitis.
There are many reasons for loose and painful teeth. Patients should identify the cause and treat it accordingly. They should maintain oral cleanliness in their daily lives.
