What if the teeth are getting bigger and bigger?

Backlash, also called backlash, is a natural gap between teeth. Under normal circumstances, there are gaps between teeth, but the gaps between normal teeth are covered by gingival tissue (gingival papilla). The custom of Minnan people is that their front teeth are too big to leak money, which is not very reliable in science, but from another angle, too big teeth affect their beauty and can not bring them enough confidence in their work, life and career. It's not easy to make money by yourself. Too big teeth block food, which leads to gum inflammation and periodontal disease is also a headache for you.

What is the reason that the gap between teeth is too big?

1. Dental caries (tooth decay): The adjacent surfaces of teeth are decayed, which leads to the widening of the gap between teeth.

2. Wisdom teeth: A certain gap is formed between the wisdom teeth inclined to the growth direction and the premolars, which leads to an excessive tooth gap.

3, food impaction: long-term food impaction of teeth, food embedded in the teeth, oppression of gingival tissue, can occur gingival papilla inflammatory recession, and then increase the teeth.

4. Tooth displacement: the displaced teeth are embedded between the roots of the incisors, resulting in a large gap between the incisors.

5, odontoma, embedded teeth: between the maxillary anterior teeth is the common part of odontoma and embedded teeth, which can be diagnosed by X-ray.

6, gingival atrophy: mechanical stimulation, incorrect brushing methods, gingival inflammation and periodontal disease, gingival papilla is prone to inflammation and bleeding, persistent gingival inflammation causes gingival atrophy, gingival papilla height is reduced, and teeth are getting bigger and bigger.

7. Periodontitis: alveolar bone absorption in patients with periodontitis leads to tooth loosening and excessive gap. Most adults suffer from periodontal disease, which progresses slowly and most people develop from gingivitis. Occasionally, there are not many symptoms except bleeding when brushing your teeth, so it is generally not easy to attract attention. When gingivitis develops to a certain extent, it is periodontitis. At this time, there may be serious oral odor, recurrent periodontal abscess, loose teeth, bigger and thinner teeth, and severe tooth loss.

8. Orthodontic treatment: In the process of orthodontic treatment, a temporary gap will be formed due to the reconstruction of teeth. After the treatment is stable, the doctor will sew up the gap.

9. labial frenum's attachment is too low: The common reason is that the incisor gap is too wide due to developmental physiological reasons. The labial frenum is quite thick in the embryonic stage and will gradually retract after birth. If it is not retracted, the adhesion between gums will be too low, which will cause the gap between upper incisors to be too wide. Please ask the doctor to cut off the attachment of labial frenum in time under local anesthesia, and the two central incisors will gradually move to the center automatically. If you can't move closer to the center by yourself, you can narrow the gap through orthodontics and let the teeth move slowly to a normal and tidy position.

10, supernumerary teeth: The labial side and palatal side between maxillary incisors are the frequent sites of supernumerary teeth, and supernumerary deformed teeth seriously affect the growth and arrangement of normal permanent teeth, leading to the widening of the upper incisor space.

1 1. Abnormal replacement of primary and permanent teeth: permanent teeth have grown out but primary teeth have not fallen off as scheduled. At this time, it is easy to form cracks or tooth deviation, and the retained deciduous teeth should be pulled out directly in time.

12, the gap between deciduous teeth is too large: it is normal for children to have too wide teeth when their deciduous teeth grow and change teeth. In the future, permanent teeth are larger and more numerous than deciduous teeth, and the gap can be closed after replacing permanent teeth. On the other hand, the gap between deciduous teeth is too dense, and there is not enough space for the long permanent teeth to grow in the future, which will lead to uneven dentition.

Many people think that tooth washing will make the gap between teeth bigger, so they always think it is better to wash their teeth less. In fact, this is an extremely wrong idea. It is normal to feel that the gap between teeth becomes bigger after tooth washing, but many people think it is caused by tooth washing. In fact, it is because the gums have retreated, the roots have been exposed, and there are already teeth gaps, but these teeth gaps are generally covered with tartar and can't be felt. After tooth cleaning, the dirt on the surface and crevices of the teeth is removed, only to find that the crevices of the teeth are enlarged, and some even have obvious soreness, which will last for a period of time. If the tartar and calculus are not removed for a long time, it will stimulate the gums to shrink further and will not be exposed at all. Dental cleaning is to use the principle of ultrasonic mechanical vibration to remove dental calculus attached to the tooth surface and the gap between teeth, restore the smooth color of teeth, and effectively prevent oral and dental diseases.

Treatment methods and precautions for oversized teeth;

1. Early extraction of wisdom teeth with abnormal growth and elimination of the gap between inclined wisdom teeth and premolars are beneficial to the protection of molars.

2. Develop good oral hygiene habits. When it is too late or inconvenient to brush your teeth, rinse your mouth with water or tea to keep your mouth clean and hygienic.

3. Regular tooth cleaning and health care: Toothcleaning is an effective measure to prevent gum inflammation and periodontal disease. Regular tooth cleaning every three months to six months is the most effective way to maintain oral hygiene.

4. Master the correct brushing method: choose a soft-haired toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste, use toothpicks and dental floss to clean the hard-to-reach positions of the toothbrush when necessary, and maintain good oral hygiene.

5. Orthodontic treatment of closed teeth: It takes a relatively long time to paste metal orthodontic brackets on the surface of teeth and close the gap by orthodontic correction to restore the dental arch shape of the whole dentition.

6. Bad restorations or dentures are not easy to clean, which will lead to poor oral hygiene and gingival atrophy. It is inconvenient and not cheap to go to some clinics with low technical level and irregular operation, which is also the main reason for poor repair.

7. Actively treat periodontal disease: diseases of gums and periodontal tissues will cause gums to shrink back, thus forming a seam between two teeth. It is suggested that periodontal disease should be treated actively and systematically, especially in the case of gingival bleeding, loosening and displacement of individual teeth. You should go to the hospital in time for examination so as to deal with the symptoms.

8. Correct use of interdental brush: When the teeth are improperly arranged or there are periodontal diseases and degenerative diseases leading to gingival atrophy and root exposure, obvious tooth gaps will be formed between the teeth, which is easy to embed into food. In this case, it is better to use an interdental brush than a toothpick.

9. Develop the habit of flossing: Hard and inferior toothpicks can easily damage gums. It's better to use dental floss instead of toothpicks. Soft dental floss can smoothly pass through the physiological gaps of teeth without damaging people's teeth, and can well remove food residues and dirt between teeth.

10, large gap porcelain-fused-to-metal restoration: irregular tooth arrangement and large gap. After the growth and development period, adults can consider using metal porcelain crown to restore normal tooth shape and close the gap.
