Gingul teeth are indeed unique. If you smile, it will indeed add to someone's sweet smile. But the dilemma of a gingivitis can occur, when the gingulous teeth have an adverse effect on the tooth structure and pain in the area of your mouth and jaw. Come on, see what you need to know about Gingsul below.
What is a gingle tooth?
Gingul in the teeth is late canine teeth grow. Canines have a vulnerable time needed to grow which is about 10 months (from the distance from the release of canines from milk teeth to permanent canines). Unlike the distance from the other teeth, it does not take a long time to change, after being separated from the place it can be occupied by new teeth.
Now, this late growth canine tooth is caused by long-term changes, so that the space for new canines is taken more frequently by the other teeth around it. Finally, when the canines began to surface, it turned out that the place had run out. Because the canine teeth must stay out to the surface, then it is called a gingulous tooth.
Causes of gum teeth
This gingul tooth grows due to premature milk teeth, can be due to contact with hard objects or by accident. Premature teeth that date prematurely do not provide enough space for permanent teeth to grow later, resulting in cramping. Hereditary factors can also be a cause of growth of gum teeth, as well as malnutrition.
In dentistry, this position is called ectopic or prominent. Actually, all teeth have the potential for ectopic or gingulic, but canines are teeth that are most often experiencing a state of gingles because of the most recent sequence of growth.
Does gingulous teeth have an impact on health?
Gingul on teeth does have a serious negative impact if it is not addressed immediately. The teeth will have an impact like impacted teeth. Impaction is a tooth that does not grow properly so that it will feel very painful, when viewed from the position of the pushing teeth and even accumulate in several other teeth.
In addition to impaction, you will also experience difficulties when cleaning the teeth, because gingsul likes to be in a position to close and cover the teeth that first appear. Dirt that is difficult to clean will accumulate, and there will be holes or erosion on teeth that are difficult to clean.
How to fix gingul teeth so neatly?
There are two steps that must be done to repair gingul in the teeth, namely to do wiring on the teeth (commonly known as stirrup) by giving new space to gingsul, but after going through the gingul extraction operation.
The process of extracting gingual teeth is actually included in the range of small surgical actions in the mouth. Even so, this dental operation still has risks, such as the risk of infection. Especially if you have a health problem beforehand. You better consult first about the tooth you want to revoke.
Some conditions that can increase your risk for infection after surgery are liver disease, impaired immune system, joint disease, and congenital heart defects. The doctor may give antibiotics before and after extraction to avoid infection.
Before your teeth are removed, the doctor will inject a local anesthetic in the area of the gum around the tooth that you want to remove. Relax, the anesthesia is not too painful. After extracting teeth, you can go straight home. And stirrup installation is carried out when the extracted tooth area has been recovered to flatten the distance between the dental chambers previously covered by gingul.
