Seven Factors You should Know about Cleft Teeth
- The symptoms of cleft teeth are various, sometimes very similar to cavities or tooth sensitivity. In the early stage of cleft teeth, with the current medical technology and human limit, it can not be clear that there is a 100% difference between cleft teeth and sensitivity, some of them show that they can’t bite easily, and even similar to some periodontal symptoms.
But we can’t reverse the cause. That is to say, we can’t say that these symptoms (cleft teeth syndrome) are all called cleft teeth, but cleft teeth may have these symptoms.
- Most of the cleft teeth are affected by “time”. That is to say, there is no tooth crack now, which does not mean there will be no tooth crack in the future; or there is only a slight tooth crack now, which does not mean that the degree of tooth crack will not become serious over time. So regular follow-up is very important for cleft teeth.
- Apart from the causes of trauma, the other main causes of tooth fracture are eating hard and tough food, eating ice, gnawing bones, crabs, gripping teeth, grinding teeth at night, etc.
- For the treatment of cleft teeth, if the pulp system is affected, there will be pulp related treatment; if the tooth structure is damaged, there will be different types of restoration (such as filling teeth, inlay, braces, etc.); for severe cleft teeth, it is very possible to extract teeth. As for whether it can be pulled out, replantation is needed to keep the teeth.
- The best prevention method, in addition to the prevention of tooth injury. The most important thing is to adjust your life and eating habits. Even if you have cracked teeth, you need to adjust your diet and life even if you use braces or other restorations to protect them. Otherwise, the cracked teeth may continue to deteriorate, or other teeth that were not damaged will also have cracked one by one.
- Therefore, try to avoid eating hard and tough food, ice, bones and crabs. For molars at night, it is suggested to seek further protection from doctors.
There are hundreds of reasons for tooth fracture, and the symptoms are also strange. Diagnosis and treatment are great challenges. In many cases, “time” is needed as the best referee. If you have any tooth related symptoms, don’t buy any anti-inflammatory drugs or painkillers to solve the problem; you need to see a doctor as soon as possible, even if no problem is found at that time, it doesn’t mean that there will be no problem in the future, so it’s a better strategy to go back to the doctor regularly.
- The difference between cleft teeth syndrome and cleft teeth
Cracked tooth syndrome is a term used to describe symptoms. This syndrome mainly describes that when we chew granulated or hard food, we will have acute toothache; or when we drink ice water, our teeth will have sharp, like short-term pain caused by electricity.
However, cleft teeth have corresponding pulp and periodontal symptoms. Some will show acute pulpitis, periapical periodontitis, pulp necrosis or long abscess, periodontal bag and so on.
Because the key point of cleft teeth is that the diagnosis of cleft teeth will be different according to the time sequence and the way of cleft teeth. Only according to the diagnosis can there be a proper way to deal with it at that time. Therefore, cleft tooth syndrome is just a phenomenon for us. What really helps doctors is the “diagnosis” of cleft tooth.
