Teeth growing inside gums

Normal people's teeth only grow in the upper and lower rows of gums, but it is also possible for teeth to grow in the gums. These teeth are also called wisdom teeth. If patients find that teeth have grown in their gums and these teeth do not cause any particular discomfort, no treatment is required. However, for most patients, teeth growing inside the gums will cause inflammation and swelling. What are the treatment measures at this time?

Taking medication or having a tooth extracted. If the patient's teeth and periodontal tissues have already developed inflammation, pain, swelling or other discomfort symptoms, then anti-inflammatory drugs should be taken immediately. If the patient's problem is more serious, then he or she needs to go to the hospital to have the tooth extracted, so as to fundamentally solve the problem of recurring inflammation.

In fact, in our lives, it is not uncommon for teeth to grow on the gums. Generally, this happens mostly because of wisdom teeth, which is very normal. However, the growth of wisdom teeth is different for each person. For some people, their wisdom teeth grow in the wrong direction, which can cause swollen or inflamed gums, making the patient feel very uncomfortable. In this case, you should see a doctor immediately and take specific measures based on the specific situation to confirm whether other teeth will be affected. The doctor will give professional advice and treatment methods so as not to affect other teeth.

You should still maintain oral hygiene at ordinary times. After teeth grow out of the gums, you should brush your teeth frequently, develop a habit of rinsing your mouth after meals, and replace your toothbrush regularly. Pay special attention to the spaces between your teeth when brushing your teeth, and go to the hospital regularly for a thorough oral cleaning. This is the only way to ensure oral hygiene.
