my teeth are all fine but it's mobile. is it pyorrhea? or something? thanx for your answeres. i hope i will know the solution for this because it bothers me especially when i ate hard foods.

Answer:

there are three things that cause mobility- hitting it over and over again hard ie only tooth supporting a side, if you have a partial or retainer the tooth it latches onto can become mobile Periodontal disease. Where the gum and bone have decreased due to infection and the tooth cannot be saved. You have to soften your diet, if it loose. Going to the dentist to fix your gums runs close to 800 for the whole mouth. If it is just one single infected tooth, pulling ranges from 100-350 depending on how hard it is to get out, Xrays emergency exam, and the extraction. Hope I helped a little. If all your gums bleed when you brush, brush more. Not hard, the key is how you brush. Gently, in a circlular motion aiming at the gumline, and working each tooth. Floss everday with out fail- it must be done right or it doesn't work either. Any office can show you how. If you do it three days in a row, the bleeding usually stops, and it becomes a habit ---- the only way to keep your teeth for anyone. Pick up Viadent at the store it will help melt off plaque. The plaque sticks under your gumline. The gum is not attached to the tooth for 3-4 mm. Every day you don't clean the area gently itmakes for the plaque to become hardened like sandpaper- then when you talk and chew it rubs, producing bleeding that is trapped under the gum. That is the blood you see when you brush and floss. Lots of times people at the dentist blame the person cleaning their teeth for the blood. That is rarely the case.

Looks like you work in a dental clinic so you should know the answer to that.
