Mobile Teeth

Management

·             There is no need to worry if a deciduous tooth becomes loose because of tooth transition. You can let the deciduous tooth naturally exfoliate and there is no need to extract it. Even though the tooth is loose, you must still pay attention to oral hygiene around it.

·             If teeth are mobile because of periodontal disease, you should go to a dentist as soon as possible and seek proper treatment to prevent the situation from worsening.

·             You should see a dentist when there is inflammation in the periodontal tissues and seek proper treatment to completely cure the inflammation. According to the situation, treatments such as root planing or endodontic (root canal) treatment can be done to keep the inflammation from spreading to adjacent periodontal tissues.

You should go to a dentist as soon as possible to have your teeth checked if a tooth becomes mobile after a traumatic injury.

Mobile Teeth Cause

• Resorption of root
  There is a “succeeding permanent tooth” underneath the root of every deciduous tooth. When the permanent tooth erupts, the root of the deciduous tooth will resorb and the tooth will become loose and will eventually fall off. This natural phenomenon occurs between the age of six and thirteen.
• Receding dental alveolar bone
  When a person is suffering from severe periodontal disease, the dental alveolar bone will recede and the teeth will lose support and become loose.
• Inflammation of periodontal tissues around teeth
  When dental caries or periodontal disease causes inflammation of the periodontal tissues, or causes an abscess, the teeth will become loose.

Traumatic injury to teeth
After traumatic injury to a tooth, the tooth supporting tissues may be damaged and the tooth involved will become loose

Irregular Teeth Cause Environmental factor

• Early loss of deciduous teeth
If a deciduous tooth is lost prematurely, the adjacent teeth on either side will migrate towards the space of the lost tooth, closing up the space. The reduced space will not allow the succeeding permanent tooth to erupt into good alignment.
• Bad habits
Bad habits such as digit sucking and biting on a pen can induce pressure on the teeth and push them into an abnormal position.
• Development of oral disease due to lack of proper oral care and treatment ：

o Dental caries
Severe dental caries in the adjacent tooth surface will cause the neighbouring tooth to tip over and take up the space, and the teeth will become irregular.
o Periodontal disease

Severe periodontal disease will result in the loss of bone support to the teeth. The teeth will then drift to abnormal positions.

Lots of teeth due to oral diseases (such as dental caries and periodontal disease) or traumatic injury can cause drifting of adjacent teeth.
