How does periodontitis cause the gap between teeth to become larger? What should I do to cause gum bleeding? Periodontitis is an inflammation of periodontal tissue, which is mainly caused by bacteria in dental plaque invading periodontal tissue. Periodontitis patients have no obvious symptoms at the initial stage. When inflammation spreads from gum to periodontal ligament, alveolar and dentin, it will develop into periodontitis. Periodontitis patients will have clinical symptoms such as gingival bleeding, halitosis, tooth exudation and tooth loosening. In addition, patients will continue to suffer from enlarged teeth. Here, Dr. Liao Junqiang, Chief Physician of Yuedong Hospital, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, is invited to introduce in detail why periodontitis can lead to bigger teeth.

What is the reason why periodontitis causes the gap between teeth to become larger? Periodontitis, due to the long-term deposition of tartar and dental plaque, stimulates the atrophy of gingiva and alveolar bone, leading to the widening of the gap between teeth. Subacute periapical periodontitis refers to the localized painful inflammation around the gingival apex, which can be divided into two stages: subacute pulp periapical periodontitis and subacute viral periapical periodontitis.

How does periodontitis lead to gingival bleeding? Periodontitis leads to gingival bleeding, so it is necessary to go to the otolaryngology department of the hospital for regular oral examination and treatment. In addition, we should maintain stable oral hygiene habits and master the correct way of brushing our teeth. Periodontitis patients must pay attention to light taste and nutrition, and do not eat greasy, spicy, irritating, kebabs, greasy and other ingredients. In addition, patients need to cultivate good oral hygiene habits and clean their teeth on time.

When periodontitis leads to gingival bleeding, besides basic treatment, medical care should also be given to teeth. Patients should clean their teeth immediately after three meals a day to prevent food residues from remaining on the tooth surface, causing acidification and tartar accumulation. In view of the position where gingival recession is very easy to occur, it is necessary to thoroughly clean teeth with special tools such as wood floss sticks and apply mouthwash to each other. At the same time, there are allergies in the diet to prevent the stimulation of hot and cold spicy food and avoid the pain caused by teeth. Dental care products also need to be carefully selected. Soft toothbrush should be replaced every three months. The application of acoustic wave electric toothbrush can also be considered. When using whitening toothpaste, try to choose fluoride, which can inhibit the adsorption of germs and protein on the tooth surface.
