Teeth change in children – from milk teeth to permanent teeth

The change of teeth usually takes place between the ages of 6 and 12. During this time, the bit is made up of still existing milk teeth and new permanent teeth. Between the ages of 16 and 24, the wisdom teeth break through the gums. In this article we would like to explain how this change takes place and which teeth break through and when.

Why is there a tooth change?

The change of teeth tries to adjust the relationship between jaw size and tooth size as well as the number of teeth during a person’s strongest growth phase. As the jaw changes during this growth phase, the balanced relationship is lost, which is thus restored. The milk teeth fall out in different phases of the tooth change and the new teeth appear.

Toothache (pulling) when chewing - what is it? (Teeth, dentist)

Toothache (pulling) when chewing – what is it?

Hello, about a week ago I was at the dentist for a filling. Since that day, it hurts between two teeth when chewing. Since this was also the case with light things at the beginning, I went to the doctor again on Monday. This has sanded the filling (plastic) again a little. After that it was a little bit better. Now I could chew delicate things and even when I grit my teeth, they no longer hurt. But since it was not completely gone and the tooth still hurt with hard things, I went to the ZA again on Tuesday. This cut a little more. However, it didn’t improve much, just a little bit. I also have to say that (despite anesthesia), I had a pull (small amount of pain) on this tooth while drilling on the tooth while the doctor gave me the filling. Now I’m still in pain when I chew very hard things on this tooth. I can also press on the tooth itself, it doesn’t hurt either. It really only hurts when I floss between the affected tooth and the tooth next door, for example. Could it be that the tooth nerve was irritated and now has to subside? In terms of time, this somehow seems a bit much to me, after all, almost two weeks have passed since the filling. I hope you can help me?

Toothache, but not when chewing (teeth)

Toothache, but not when chewing

Hi! I have a toothache on an upper molar tooth since yesterday. The funny thing is, I can load the tooth normally and bite it hard without the pain getting worse. I have the feeling that the cause lies exactly between two teeth. The last time I cleaned with dental floss, the initial slight pull on the tooth suddenly caused severe pain. Could it be that it is not the tooth that is affected, but the gums? I think I’ll go to the dentist tomorrow, just want to know what I might have to adjust to.

Tooth filling in white! (Teeth, dentist, filling)

Tooth filling in white?!

Hello dear users, I wanted to ask if you can have a white tooth filling done! :) So you have to pay for it out of your own pocket or take over that, the health insurance (:? Which filling is better the black or the white? Thank you in advance _ :) mfg abrar

Hello abrar, the white filling is of course better because it does not deviate so visibly. If you have to have front teeth filled, they will be filled in white without additional payment. Hanco writes that he also got a molar in white, free of charge. I have had the experience that my dentist does not fill the molars or the ones before that in white for free. I do not know now whether it is the dentist who wants to save his budget or the respective health insurance company that does not pay it. If you are lucky enough to have a dental clinic in your area that trains students, you can go there, because all teeth are sealed in white, i.e. the students practice on the patient, and that is without additional payment.

When does a tooth have to be extracted?

Before working out a denture concept to replace existing teeth, it should be clarified whether a tooth needs to be removed at all. There is no clear distinction between when a tooth is pulled and when it is worth preserving.

A denture without "Wackelkandidaten", teeth with poor prognosis can be planned better. However, extraction is not always the best solution.

In some situations, a tooth simply cannot be saved.

In other cases, the therapy costs are too high. General medical reasons may require timely tooth removal.

Grinding of teeth: causes, consequences, treatment »cmd doctor search

Gnashing of teeth (bruxism)

Grinding your teeth is an unpleasant and unhealthy habit. The reasons for this are very diverse and have not yet been fully researched. The most common is gnashing of teeth at night, but some people do it subconsciously during the day. Teeth grinding is very common in children and toddlers.

What happens when you grind your teeth and how it happens?

When grinding your teeth, those affected usually subconsciously rub or clench their teeth or rub them against each other, causing long-term damage to the tooth structure. They often do it in their sleep when consciousness is completely switched off or when there is strong mental and emotional tension.

Grinding of teeth in children (bruxism)

Aaargh! This nasty sound is somewhat reminiscent of the scratching of school chalk on the blackboard. It puts your neck hair up and every nerve gets into high tension. Many a child does this quite consciously, others, however, only in their sleep: grinding their teeth – also called bruxism. If children grind their teeth during the day, they could run out of their skin. Not only because rubbing the teeth together gives us parents goosebumps, but also because we are concerned about dental health. The teeth and the temporomandibular joint are stressed quite a bit, not to mention the cramped facial muscles. Does it have to be that way? Can you somehow get rid of the gnashing of teeth in children?

BLEACH YOURSELF: PRODUCTS AND HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTS FOR WHITE TEETH

If you have discolored teeth and are afraid to smile? If the discoloration of the tooth enamel is superficial, the discoloration of the teeth can be reversed. Learn more about the advantages and disadvantages of over-the-counter tooth whiteners and home remedies and, if necessary, about their risks.

WHITENING TOOTHPASTE FOR WHITE TEETH

Tooth enamel is like a mirror. It reflects the light. Over time, its reflectivity decreases. Bleaching toothpaste makes the tooth surface smoother and therefore brighter.

Thus, whitening toothpaste does not change the color of the teeth. It gradually polishes its surface so that it shines.
