THE COMMON CAUSES THAT LEADS TO TOOTH LOSS
It may be uncomfortable to have difficulty eating because of your missing teeth, or to close your mouth with your hand while smiling. That is why it is necessary not to neglect oral care and regular visits to the dentist. In order to know the causes of tooth loss and develop appropriate habits or start treatment, Turkey Medicals member and hospital dentist center expert Dentist explained the 4 common causes of tooth loss…
Poor oral hygiene
There is a reason why your dentist and family always tell you to brush your teeth twice a day and floss every day. This will help keep your teeth healthy. When you disrupt your oral care routine, your dental health is affected. On the surfaces of the teeth, a bacterial plaque first forms, as a result of which gingivitis, called gingivitis, occurs. If you do not take care of this condition, the gingivitis passes to the bone under it, and periodontitis occurs. Periodontitis, which is an inflammation of the bone that holds the teeth, causes the bone to melt irreversibly over time and your teeth begin to shake.
Trauma
People can sometimes have their teeth damaged or broken in accidents or while doing contact sports. But the injury is not always immediately apparent. Sometimes trauma can take effect in a place where you can’t see it at the root, and then an infection develops in this area. This can lead to the formation of cysts around the root of the tooth. When you experience an oral injury, it is important to see a dentist, even if you do not see an obvious injury. In fact, this check should also be checked with an X-ray that will be taken 6 months after the area where you received the trauma.
Poor nutrition
A diet devoid of essential nutrients affects your entire immune system. People with weak immune systems are at risk of periodontal disease, which we mentioned earlier, and it increases your risk of tooth loss. A balanced diet with lots of fruits, vegetables and calcium-rich foods should be taken care of.
Irregular dentist visit
When you visit the dentist every six months, not only for cleaning, it allows your dentist to examine your teeth and draw attention to possible problems that you need to be aware of.
.
For example, if you have a small caries, your dentist may treat the formation of caries with early detection, or your dentist may warn you by noticing the symptoms of gingivitis, which is the first stage of gum disease. When treated at an early stage, you can protect yourself from periodontal disease.
