What should I do if my teeth are loose and about to fall out?

If you feel that your teeth are loose and about to fall out, you should go to the hospital for a check-up in time. In this case, the treatment method is nothing more than tooth extraction, or if the doctor feels that the tooth can still be used, the tooth can be fixed. In daily life, you must prevent this situation. There are many reasons for loose teeth, such as external force, tooth decay, etc.

What should I do if my teeth are loose and about to fall out?

1. Tooth extraction:

Doctors usually recommend removing loose teeth and then replacing them with dentures. This is probably the method that most people have to accept. Removing one less tooth is a concern for every elderly person. Pulling out teeth and replacing them with dentures not only fails to achieve the desired therapeutic effect, it is also completely irrelevant and will only remove the root cause. After the dentures are installed, they still rely on the healthy teeth and gums for support, so it will also put a certain burden on the healthy teeth. If it is not done well, it will also cause great irritation to the gums.

2. Tooth fixation:

This method is to use a dental fixator to fix the good teeth that are loose. This method is actually not advisable because the good teeth will also become loose. It can only achieve simple fixation and has no therapeutic effect.

3. Choose the right toothpaste.

In fact, loose teeth are closely related to improper choice of toothpaste. If you neglect the protection of your gums in daily care, it is very likely to aggravate the loosening of your teeth. There are many medicated toothpastes on the market at present, and the most prominent one in this regard is Shenlikang Guchi medicated toothpaste. This toothpaste nourishes the gums, prevents teeth from becoming further loose, and is effective for bleeding, swollen and painful teeth.

4. Take anti-inflammatory drugs

If the loose teeth are caused by trauma, if they are mildly loose, you can take anti-inflammatory drugs. Once the inflammation subsides, the teeth will automatically return to a stable state. If the looseness is severe or dislocated or shifted, the teeth should be repositioned and then ligated and fixed to the adjacent teeth. Take anti-inflammatory drugs, maintain oral hygiene, and prohibit the use of this tooth in the short term. After 1-2 months, the tooth will return to normal.
