Symptoms of a loose tooth
A loose tooth can cause various symptoms such as discomfort or pain when you chew, as well as a feeling that the tooth is moving. Other symptoms may be tenderness in the gums, swelling or bleeding. It is important to see a dentist if you experience any of these symptoms to get a diagnosis and the right treatment.
How does a tooth loosen?
A tooth can become loose due to many factors, including gum disease, trauma, or reduced tooth support due to aging or tooth decay. Dentists at CLINICA SMILE will examine your tooth and determine the cause of the problem before suggesting treatment options.
Treatment for loose teeth
Treatment for a loose tooth can vary depending on the cause of the problem. At Clinica Smile, we will first examine your tooth to determine the cause of the problem. Treatment options may include tooth restoration, braces or tooth extraction if the tooth cannot be saved.
Tooth extraction
If the tooth cannot be saved, tooth extraction may be necessary. This is usually done under local anaesthetic, and our dentists will ensure that you feel comfortable and pain-free throughout the procedure. After the tooth extraction, the dentist will give you advice on how to take care of your mouth and reduce discomfort after the procedure.
Dental Health Tips:
- Brush your teeth properly: Brush your teeth thoroughly twice a day for at least two minutes each time. Use a fluoride toothpaste to strengthen tooth enamel.
- Clean between the teeth: Use dental floss or interdental brushes daily to remove plaque and food debris that the brush cannot reach.
- Visit the dentist regularly: Go to the dentist at least twice a year for routine check-ups and professional teeth cleaning.
- Eat a healthy diet: Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks that can lead to tooth decay. Eat more fruits, vegetables and calcium-rich foods to maintain strong teeth.
- Avoid tobacco products: Smoking and sniffing can cause dental problems and gum disease. Try to stop or reduce the use of these products for better dental health.
- Protect your teeth during activities: Use a mouth guard during sports activities or when you perform activities with a risk of tooth damage.
- Care for dentures: If you have dentures, be sure to clean them regularly and store them safely to avoid damage and infection.
