 She also complains of long term missing teeth in lower back teeth region on both sides and have difficulty in chewing food.

On intraoral examination -- there is severely infected root canal treated teeth in upper left back teeth region.

And root stumps in lower right back teeth region, and there is missing left back teeth.

As there is long term missing teeth on both sides, the bite got collapsed and the opposing tooth of right side got supraerupted(drifted towards missing teeth space) and because of this she had chronic headaches. 

 To correct the bite, we need to create space for replacing the missing teeth, so we advised to go for root canal treatment and crowns for opposing teeth in upper right side and advised re-root canal treatment and crowns for severely infected teeth in upper left side. 

And advised removal of root stumps in lower right side,and replacement of lower right and left sides missing teeth with Implants followed by Zirconia crowns.

Teeth grinding/Night grinding.

 BRUXISM

 

Excessive grinding of the teeth or clenching of the jaw. This condition can affect adults and children and can occur during day and night.

Teeth grinding is also common in children. However, because their teeth and jaws change and grow so quickly it is not usually a damaging habit that requires treatment and most outgrow it by adolescence.

Causes of teeth grinding in children include:

• irritation in the mouth
• allergies
• misaligned teeth

Causes:  

1. Grinding of the teeth can have causes that aren't due to underlying disease. Examples include an abnormal alignment of the jaw.

2. Sleep disorders.

3. Stress and anxiety.

4.Tobacco and alcohol use. 

5. Recreational drugs{Chemical substances taken for enjoyment rather than for medical reasons}.

Signs And Symptoms: 

1. Teeth grinding or clenching which may be loud enough to wake up your sleep partner.

2. Teeth that are flattened, fractured, chipped or loose.

3. Worn tooth enamel, exposing deeper layers of your tooth causes the teeth sensitivity.

4. Dull headaches and jaw soreness.

Water flosser

          WATER FLOSSER 

 A water flosser is a device that direct a stream of water to clean away any leftover plaque and food debris from teeth and gums. 

It's also called an oral irrigator or a dental water jet.

ADVANTAGES:

1. Complementary to toothbrush's cleaning capability.   
2. Prevent and reduce inflammation and other dental diseases.
3. It effectively reduces bacteria in spots like the gaps and the gum line.
4. A water flosser can clean braces and teeth gently without damaging the braces or hurting the teeth.

DISADVANTAGES:

1. For those who are currently struggling with severe symptoms of inflammation or loose teeth, we do not recommend using a water flosser to worsen the symptoms.
2. It might be difficult for kids and elderly peoples.
3. It does not remove all the debris so manual tooth brushing should not be stopped.

   WHO NEEDS A WATER FLOSSER:

• Person who is wearing braces.
• Those who feel difficult to do use a manual floss.
• Those who are wearing removable dentures.

Do you have crooked teeth ?

CROOKED TEETH

Crooked or misaligned teeth are very common in adults and children.

Crooked front teeth are aesthetically unappealing to most people, but not just the look of crooked teeth alone cause a problem and it will attract unwanted discomforts in your oral health.

Causes:

• Baby teeth sometimes move into crooked positions because of small jaw size.
• Prolonged habits, such as thumb sucking or pacifier usage, causes the baby teeth in crooked positions.

THUMB SUCKING LEADS TO PROTRUDED
 FRONT TEETH AND AN OPEN BITE 

• Hereditary and genetics also plays a role.
• Premature loss of baby teeth, may cause the permanent teeth to go into crooked positions.
  
• Smaller jaw size.
• Poor myofunctional habits such as thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, mouth breathing.
• Crooked teeth are at greater risk of injury. Injury to the face or mouth can knock the tooth out to crooked position.

INJURY TO THE TEETH CAUSED BY  FALL

Consequences to crooked teeth:

• Periodontal disease - it can be hard to clean between the crooked teeth results in tooth decay and gum disease. If left untreated gum disease leads to periodontitis.

PERIODONTITIS

• Speech difficulties.
• Lack of self esteem and self avoidance.

Treatment to crooked teeth:

• Orthodontic treatment is used to correct the crooked teeth. After the orthodontic treatment, wearing the retainer is must. Retainers prevent the teeth from going back to their original positions.
