For those who are losing Teeth, Dental bridges are a possibility. The three most common causes of tooth loss are tooth decay, gum disease, and accidents. Another option is that you were born without teeth as a result of a genetic illness. You must have healthy teeth on each side of the gap in your smile in order to get a dental Bridge.
Your bridge will be expertly crafted to comfortably fit, appear natural in your smile, and give you more confidence when biting and chewing. They may become dislodged and loosen as a result of oral hygiene issues or direct dental trauma. Visit an advanced oral dynamics dentist to have the area of your dental bridge that feels loose looked at and fixed.
Why Does It Feel Loose, and How Can I Prevent It?
Due to oral trauma, the bridge becomes looser. Your bridge may have become loose because of dental trauma if you have recently had a blow to the head, face, or mouth, and it feels loose. Your bridge may have suffered major damage and become loose, or the teeth it rests on may have sustained significant damage.
You must seek treatment immediately if, following oral trauma, you experience any discomfort or bridge loosening. Bone loss in your jaw is another effect of losing one or more teeth. This develops over time because your tooth roots actually play a crucial role in maintaining the health of your jaw bone by stimulating the bone as you chew and signaling to your body to keep feeding it nutrients.
Without that stimulation, the bone surrounding the lost tooth root starts to be absorbed again by your body. But it also has various other effects that you might not be aware of, such as altering where your mouth’s remaining teeth are positioned. One of the supporting “abutment” teeth for your bridge may become decayed if you are not properly caring for your bridge, your teeth, and your gums.
The dental cement that your dentist used to secure the bridge might break when there is decay in your teeth. This decay will cause your bridge to feel weak and start twitching. It is typically possible to recover your tooth and reattach your dental bridge as long as this is discovered early.
Tips To consider for Preventing Your Dental Bridge from Moving Out of Position:
- Do not move or change the bridge.
- Use gum or dental wax.
- Routine dental examinations must be done
- Do not chew on meals that are tough or sticky.
- Maintaining proper oral hygiene
- An appropriate installation must be done
