Gingival hyperplasia: what to do if the gum has grown?

Gum hyperplasia is a condition in which tissues begin to overgrow. They overhang over the teeth, forming false pockets, cover most of them, preventing hygiene procedures. In the literature there are several terms describing this condition: gingival overgrowth, hypertrophy or hypertrophic gingivitis.

The main danger of tissue overgrowth is that it promotes the multiplication of bacteria, provoking serious diseases such as periodontitis.

Causes of gingival hypertrophy

The main cause of tissue hypertrophy in the mouth is poor hygiene. Food residues, decay products settle on the enamel of the teeth. They accumulate, causing inflammation of the mucosa, one of the manifestations of which is hyperplasia.

Other causes include:

Taking certain medications

A side effect of some anticonvulsant drugs and immunosuppressants, certain cardiac drugs is gingival overgrowth. However, you should not interrupt their intake or reduce t…

Inflammation of the tooth root: symptoms and treatment

Reading time ~ 5 min Number of readings: 27045

Your tooth is aching, reacting to chemical (sour, sweet) and temperature (hot, cold) stimuli. In addition, it feels as if it has grown and is obstructing the mouth. These are classic symptoms of tooth root inflammation. In dentistry, it is called periodontitis.

Årsager

The disease is provoked:

Everything starts with a small carious spot. It is difficult to see it, the disease progresses, affects more and more tissues, reaches those that are located deep. The infection affects the root and periodontitis develops.

With a strong blow, periodontitis develops rapidly. If the tooth is traumatized regularly, as a result of improperly placed fillings or inadequate prosthetics, the disease does not manifest itself for a long time.

Pain in the root of the tooth can not be ignored, otherwise the inflammation will acquire a chronic c…

Fixation of crowns: fixation methods and materials

How important is tooth crown retention and what types of retention are used?

In modern dentistry, preserving natural teeth is considered the most important task. For this purpose, various therapeutic and even surgical treatment methods are used. The placement of artificial crowns can be an independent method, for example, if there is pathological abrasion of enamel or part of the treatment. This occurs during endodontic intervention. The pulp (nerve) is removed from the tooth, the tooth becomes brittle, and a crown is used to protect the tooth from decay.

Indikationer

Indications for restoration:

Significant destruction of the crown portion; placement of bridges; pathologic erasure of enamel; depulpation; trauma.

Crowns are made of metal, ceramic and metal-ceramic. Porcelain and plastic crowns are practically not used due to fragility. Modern materials are characterized by special strength and wear resistance. T…

Tyske tandimplantater: typer og funktioner

Russiske patienter kan godt lide implantater fra Tyskland på grund af deres lange levetid. Mange af dem leveres med livstidsgaranti. Produkternes kvalitet bekræftes af certifikater fra EU og ISO 13485-kvalitetssystemet for medicinske produkter.

Implantologer sætter pris på dem, fordi systemet kan skræddersys til ethvert klinisk tilfælde. Desuden er alle implantationsprotokoller omhyggeligt designet til at minimere komplikationer.

Blandt de lande, der producerer implantater, indtager Tyskland en af de førende pladser, primært fordi producenterne er afhængige af en stærk videnskabelig base. Forskerne udvikler nye typer overflader, tråde og former på implantaterne for at øge graden af indvækst og fremskynde osseointegrationen. Anerkendte medicinske tidsskrifter offentliggør regelmæssigt forskningsdata, der bekræfter en høj procentdel af vellykket indvækst.

Der findes flere typer tyske implantater på det russiske dentalmarked.

Russiske tandimplantater

Tandimplantater i Rusland begyndte at blive fremstillet i midten af 90'erne. Det gjorde det muligt for ingeniører og implantologer at bruge udenlandske erfaringer og videnskabelige forskningsdata i deres udvikling. Russiske tandimplantater opfylder moderne krav til produkternes fysiske egenskaber - i deres produktion bruger de medicinsk titanium af høj renhed, og overfladen behandles ved sandblæsning. Desværre er indenlandske produkter dårligere end udenlandske inden for teknologi og metodologi.

Conmet

Conmet-implantater kom på markedet i 1996, og det var de første implantater, der blev produceret i Rusland.

Virksomheden Conmet leverer følgende typer af implantater:

Cylindrisk. Diametre fra 3,5 til 5,5 mm og længder fra 8 til 16 mm. Koniske. Deres diameter er 3,4-4,5 mm med samme længde som de cylindriske. Klassiske. De har en diameter på 4,0 til 4,8 mm og en længde på 8 til 12 mm. Mini. Diameter 1,8-2,0 mm, længde 8-12 ...

White spots on the teeth

A snow-white smile is the dream of many people, but there are times when the whiteness of teeth is not pleasing, but upsetting. This happens when white spots appear on the teeth. The appearance of chalky spots indicates a deficiency of minerals in the surface layer of the tooth (demineralization). Tooth enamel does not regenerate like nails or hair, so its loss can have serious consequences. Gradually, the tooth surface loses its matte shine in the area of the stain and becomes rough. This leads to the rapid growth of colonies of bacteria, which soften the enamel and provoke inflammatory diseases.

Causes of white spots on teeth

Mottled enamel is characteristic of milk and permanent teeth, occurs in children and adults. Provoke demineralization can environmental conditions, improper nutrition and poor oral hygiene. White spots appear at:

Hypoplasia of teeth - inhomogeneous thinning of enamel, as a result of improper formation of hard tissues.

Dental injuries – types and treatment methods

Tooth trauma is a violation of its integrity, damage to surrounding tissues, and change of position in the jaw. They occur most often in children. Moving games, sports, chewing on hard objects - any activity can cause damage to the teeth. Injuries are usually divided into acute and chronic. Acute injuries occur when there is a sudden strong impact on the teeth as a result of a blow during sports, a fall, or an accident. They are often combined with jaw injuries.

Chewing on hard objects, bad habits, complications of non-carious tissue lesions, medical errors are the cause of chronic injuries.

Types of trauma

Traumatic injuries to the teeth are distinguished by the place of receipt. They are domestic (home), road (automobile), sports.

In dentistry, different classifications of injuries are used - according to Ellis, according to WHO, according to Groszykov. In pediatric dentistry, the ICD-C system is most often used, in adult dentistry…

Why do teeth turn yellow? Causes and treatment methods

In our culture, the standard of beauty is a snow-white smile. In fact, healthy, strong teeth are yellowish. The minerals in the hard tissues give them not only their strength, but also their yellowish hue. If pigmentation gets out of control, instead of a healthy shade of enamel, we get completely unattractive yellow teeth. This is not only an aesthetic problem, but also a psychological one. A person with yellow stains on the teeth is embarrassed to smile, prefers not to enter into conversations, becomes withdrawn. Dentists pay a lot of attention to the problem, developing new and new methods of brightening the enamel.

Why teeth turn yellow

It all starts with a small plaque. After eating and drinking, a thin film - pellicle - settles on the enamel. Bacteria begin to multiply on its surface, forming plaque. No brush can remove it completely. A dental plaque is formed, prone to staining under the influence of pigments, drugs, resins.

Alas, plaq…
