Diseases of the teeth (dentistry)

Hyperdontia

Hyperdontia is a fairly rare pathology caused by a person having teeth that are beyond the norm. But, one way or another, about two percent of people on Earth suffer from this disease.

Periostitis in children

Periostitis in children is characterized by a very rapid and widespread spread of purulent masses through the tissues due to acute or chronic inflammatory processes in the periosteum of the jaws, in which a subperiosteal abscess is formed.

Periostitis of the tooth

Periostitis of the tooth - also known as gumboil - is a purulent disease, the localization of which is an inflammatory process that occurs in the periosteum of the facial-maxillary region.

Galvanosis

Galvanosis is a somewhat non-standard disease in our understanding. A disease caused by the induction of galvanic currents in the oral cavity, which appear when a potential difference occurs.

Flus in a baby

Flux is an outdated name for purulent periostitis, a consequence of the inflammatory process in the area of the root apex of the tooth, subperiosteal and subgingival zones of the jaw. Flux in a child is characterized by the fact that the mucous membrane in the area of inflammation swells and not only the gums but also the cheek swells in the baby.

Osteomyelitis of the jaw

Osteomyelitis of the jaw is an inflammation of the jaw bone tissue caused by an infection. A dangerous disease, fortunately quite rare.

Adentia

The term "edentia" means a complete or partial absence of teeth. And although the unusual name often confuses, the problem itself is not so rare.

Plaque on teeth: causes and how to get rid of it?

A charming smile is impossible without healthy and perfectly white teeth, so a lot of time is devoted to such a problem as plaque on teeth. Incorrectly organized oral hygiene leads to the appearance of an unpleasant odor and a slimy yellowish plaque on the teeth, gums and tongue.

Dental erosion

Tooth erosion is a gradual abrasion, destruction of tooth tissues of unknown etiology. Some scientists believe that the cause of tooth erosion is exclusively mechanical, others - the influence of acidic food and drinks, dysfunction of the thyroid gland.

Wobbly teeth - what is the cause and what to do?

If your teeth are loose, you need to take this symptom seriously. Because loose teeth, even in the absence of pain, can signal the presence of not only pathology in the oral cavity itself, but also diseases of the internal organs.
