Gum Disease and Loose TeethGum disease and loose teeth occurs in many people. The extent of the damage and the ability to reverse gum disease play a role in how likely it is for someone to keep their teeth rather than to lose them. If you have loose teeth, and you believe it is caused by gum disease, take action. The sooner you treat this condition, the less likely it will be for you to lose your teeth or that you will battle other health conditions as a result of it. How Gum Disease and Loose Teeth Develop Gum disease and loose teeth starts with the development of bacteria in the mouth. In most cases, some bacteria will always be present in the mouth and this is healthy. However, that bacteria needs to be fought through dental hygiene. By using an effective dental hygiene system, like the OraMD program, you can reduce your chances of developing gum disease. Loose teeth are not likely to occur in the early stages of gum disease, however. If you do not take steps to curb the bacteria level in your mouth through dental hygiene and dental checkups, it can grow excessively. It begins to attack the gums in the mouth. The gums are very susceptible to this bacterial infection. The gums become red and swollen and may bleed. When this occurs, the amount of bacteria has become too much for the body’s immune system to handle it. Over time, gum disease and loose teeth develop because the inflammation at the gum line spreads, causing the gums to fall back away from the teeth. The gums help to keep the teeth in place. When the development of gum disease and loose teeth occur, it may not be painful at first. You may notice bleeding in the gums when you brush your teeth. You may also have tooth pain and discomfort. If the teeth move back and forth in your mouth, even a small amount, this is a sign that you need to improve your dental health to stop the worsening of gum disease and loose teeth. If you do not, you could lose your teeth.
