Causes, hazards and relief methods of loose teeth with gaps

Loose teeth with gaps are usually caused by deviations in the growth of permanent teeth, poor gum development, or supernumerary teeth. Generally speaking, loose teeth with gaps will become apparent in childhood. If the gap between teeth is large, it will not only affect the appearance of the face, but also affect oral health, so it needs to be corrected in time. The following is a detailed introduction to the causes, hazards and relief methods of loose teeth and gaps.

1. Reasons for large gaps between teeth:

One is that when the permanent teeth are replaced, the growth of the permanent teeth deviates, causing them to grow unevenly, resulting in sparse teeth and large gaps.

Second, the gums may not be well developed. The gums are the basis of support for the teeth, and malnutrition can also lead to poor tooth development.

The third is supernumerary teeth. Some children often grow one or two deformed teeth on the labial, middle or palatal side of their upper incisors, which seriously affects the growth and arrangement of normal permanent teeth and causes the gap between the upper incisors to widen.

2. The harm of large gaps between teeth

Large gaps between teeth are caused by poor tooth development or acquired tooth damage. If the gaps between teeth are too large, it will directly affect the beauty of the face and will also cause certain harm to normal diet. Gaps between teeth pose a great threat to oral hygiene because the gaps between teeth make it easy for many bacteria in the air to enter the mouth and cause oral diseases. People with large gaps between teeth will easily have food left in the gaps between their teeth when eating. If the food is irritating, it will cause tooth pain. If treatment is not timely, the gaps between teeth will gradually widen. If the food accumulated in the gaps for a long time is not cleaned out in time, the pain in the teeth will be aggravated. Once you eat something hard, the cracks will widen and cause severe pain.

3. How to relieve large gaps between teeth

Depending on the size of the tooth gap and age, there are correction methods such as wearing braces or porcelain teeth correction. The time, cost and methods required are different. It is recommended to go to the local hospital for examination and choose the appropriate correction method.

1. The teeth are very neat and on the same level, but they are loosely spaced from each other, resulting in large gaps between teeth. In this case, full-mouth porcelain teeth are both beautiful, convenient and quick. The price is similar to that of correction.

2. The teeth are uneven, some teeth are obviously protruding, and the other teeth are loosely connected. In this case, the protruding teeth are extracted and the remaining teeth are corrected. All gaps are closed by moving the teeth forward.
