Common Dental Problems You Need To Address
Bad Breath
Bad breath or halitosis is a common dental issue caused by poor oral hygiene, smoking, certain medical conditions and more. It can be embarrassing and affect your social life.
Bleeding Gums
Bleeding gums can be a sign of inflammation or gingivitis. It’s a common and mild form of gum disease caused by plaque buildup at your gum line.
Gum Disease
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a serious infection and condition of the gums and other tissues that support your teeth. It’s important to address periodontal disease as soon as possible to avoid tooth, bone or loss of tissue.
Dry Socket
A dry socket is a painful dental condition that can form after tooth extraction. It occurs when the blood clot protecting the empty sockets fails to develop or becomes dislodged.
Stained Teeth
Stained teeth can have a major impact on your self-confidence and overall appearance. Teeth can become stained due to lifestyle habits, age, medications or even excessive fluoride intake.
Teeth Sensitivity
When the dentin layer of your teeth is exposed (located underneath the tooth enamel), this causes discomfort, pain or sensitivity.
Crooked Teeth
Crooked teeth can affect the way you bite and chew, as well as your overall appearance. Crooked teeth can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics and thumb-sucking.
Tooth Gaps
Gaps between teeth can make you feel self-conscious and affect the way you speak. Tooth gaps can be caused by missing teeth, genetics or an improper bite.
Bite Problems
People with bite problems or malocclusion often have difficulty eating and speaking properly. Bite problems can cause strain on your jaw muscles and pain in the jaws or headaches.
Severe Toothache
Severe toothache can be a sign of advanced decay or infection. If you’re experiencing severe pain, it’s important to visit Royal Dental Spa for evaluation and management.
Wisdom Teeth Pain
Impacted wisdom teeth often cause wisdom tooth pain. When they cannot erupt through the gums, they may cause infections, crowding, and damage to surrounding teeth.
Knocked-Out Tooth
A knocked-out tooth is an injury usually resulting from mouth trauma. You may be able to save your tooth if you act quickly and get it reimplanted.
Dental Abscess
Dental abscesses are pus and accumulation of infection caused by bacteria infecting the pulp inside a tooth. They’re extremely painful, and they can spread if not addressed immediately.
Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can occur due to decay, gum disease, or trauma. Replacing missing teeth can help improve oral hygiene and prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of place.
Bruxism
Bruxism, or teeth grinding, is a condition where you grind your teeth while asleep without realising it. If unmanaged, bruxism can damage your teeth fillings or crowns and cause headaches.
