Medical experts point out that the teeth are violently knocked together due to grinding, and there is no food to relieve them. The protective substance on the tooth surface is excessively worn, and the dentin under the protective substance is exposed. Mild people are allergic to cold, hot, sour, sweet and other irritating foods; In severe cases, it will lead to frequent bleeding, inflammation, tooth loosening and even falling off.
In addition, grinding teeth for a long time will also cause a series of complications. For example, long-term grinding of teeth causes masticatory muscles to get no rest, which leads to fatigue and pain of masticatory muscles and cheek pain; In severe cases, it can cause headache, neck and back pain, etc. It can also lead to decreased sleep quality, memory loss, bad breath or bad breath, impaired hearing and taste, leading to psychological depression, pessimism and even suicide.
People are in the period of changing teeth from 6 years old to 13 years old, and there will be molars to adapt to the running-in of upper and lower teeth. But for teenagers and adults who have passed the tooth changing period, frequent grinding is morbid.
Grinding teeth not only affects the beauty of teeth, but also damages the quality of teeth and gums, leading to bleeding gums or tooth loss.
Teenage molars will not only cause dentofacial deformities, but also affect physical development and even lead to psychological disorders such as autism.
In addition, grinding teeth will also affect the sleep quality of relatives and themselves, make patients nervous, and even lead to terrible consequences such as psychological depression and suicide.
Grinding teeth is not a normal phenomenon, but a pathological state.
People will change their deciduous teeth between the ages of 12 and 14. During this period, they may have mild molars due to itchy gums, but it is a pathological phenomenon to continue to grind their teeth after changing teeth or to grind their teeth seriously when changing teeth. When bruxism occurs, it should be treated in time, and adults should avoid other secondary diseases caused by grinding teeth. Children should pay more attention to grinding their teeth, which will affect the local development of their bodies and destroy the beauty of their teeth. Some children may even be introverted and depressed.
Medical experts pointed out: Because the teeth are violently knocked together by grinding at night, and there is no food to relieve them, the protective substance on the tooth surface is excessively worn, and the dentin under the protective substance is exposed. Mild people are allergic to cold, hot, sour, sweet and other irritating foods; In severe cases, it will lead to frequent bleeding, inflammation, tooth loosening and even falling off.
In addition, long-term bruxism will also cause a series of complications. For example, long-term grinding of teeth causes masticatory muscles to get no rest, which leads to fatigue and pain of masticatory muscles and cheek pain; In severe cases, it can cause headache, neck and back pain, etc. It can also lead to decreased sleep quality, memory loss, bad breath or bad breath, impaired hearing and taste, leading to psychological depression, pessimism and even suicide.
There are four main reasons for grinding teeth:
(1) Mental factors such as nervousness, psychological anxiety, depression and anger are prone to bruxism;
(2) Gastrointestinal diseases and endocrine disorders can also lead to bruxism;
(3) Excessive fatigue and fine labor, such as athletes and clockmakers, are prone to bruxism;
(4) Lack of trace elements in the body is prone to bruxism.
In addition to the above people, people who are introverted, emotional and often bite in their mouths are also prone to bruxism.
Molar should pay attention to the following issues:
1. Try to relax yourself before going to bed, especially before going to sleep. You can do gymnastics, take a hot bath, listen to light music and so on.
2. Avoid irritating food and smoking and improve the sleeping environment.
3. Try to avoid caffeinated drinks or food. Try to avoid coffee, chocolate, cola, etc.
4. Eat more foods rich in vitamins.
5. Know how to decompress, relax and adjust your mind.
Common causes of molars
1, intestinal parasitic diseases, especially intestinal ascariasis, are rare;
2. Gastrointestinal diseases and oral diseases;
3, give the child indigestible food before going to bed, so that the baby may stimulate the corresponding parts of the brain after sleeping, and the masticatory muscles will continue to contract through the nerves;
4. Nervous system diseases such as psychomotor epilepsy and hysteria;
5. Mental factors such as children's emotional excitement, excessive fatigue or emotional tension during the day.
It can be seen that molars are basically caused by some diseases. Although some children have been treated for a long time, their molars will not disappear immediately at night because the cerebral cortex has formed a strong conditioned reflex. In particular, although gastrointestinal diseases have improved, gastrointestinal dysfunction still exists, and its molars cannot be corrected in a short time, so it must be improved by long-term treatment.
In this way, grinding teeth has nothing to do with superstitious parents.
