Loose teeth are the result of chronic gum disease, gum recession and bone loss. As plaque and bacteria invade the area around the teeth, it destroys the attachment between the teeth and the surrounding support structures. Once gum disease becomes active and remains untreated, teeth become mobile. If mobility is severe enough it ultimately results in loss of teeth.
Causes
What causes loose teeth? Loose teeth are caused by the presence of bacteria and periodontal disease under the gums around the teeth. As the disease worsens, the gum pockets deepen due to loss of attachment structure. The bacteria from gingivitis and gum disease cause the body to destroy bone and gum tissue around the teeth, which are meant to hold the teeth in place.
Signs And Symptoms
Loose teeth typically have other signs and symptoms associated with the condition. These include:
Bleeding gums
Sore gums
Swollen, purple or red gums
Bleeding during brushing or flossing
Pus around the tooth
Food packing between the teeth or under the gums
Gum recession
Many of these symptoms accompany loose teeth and are typical of active, severe gum disease. Its important to identify loose teeth as soon as possible so that treatment can be completed before it is too late.
