Elimination of Problems Caused by Teeth Occlusion Problems

What are the symptoms of teeth occlusion problems?

Migraine-like headaches that are one-sided or occur behind the eye usually accompany dental malocclusion.

The biggest effect of malocclusion, which is the imbalance in the contact of teeth with each other that you call referred pain, on the face is headaches.

Headaches occur when they do not go away despite taking painkillers, and also trigger points, which are calcified areas that accumulate in the muscles on the face, cause sudden pain in the face when going from a cold environment to a warm environment or vice versa when going from a warm environment to a cold environment.

Confusion of headache with toothache

This situation is often complicated by the fact that there is also a problem with the tooth and the tooth that triggers the headache may also have a problem such as a cavity or crack in the tooth that is actually causing the bite problem.

While the pain caused by decay is in the form of cold and hot pain, the pain caused by closing is a chronic dull pain. For this reason, it is not enough to fix the pain caused by teeth by just filling it. Because its source is also caused by the problem in the muscle.

This troublesome process, which sometimes leads to tooth extraction, creates a complicated situation for both the doctor and the patient.

Facial stress and muscle tension

The problem of dental occlusion, which becomes apparent with facial asymmetry, causes tension in the muscles in that area of ​​the face.

Facial asymmetry is not very obvious under the age of 35 because facial collagens tighten the face to eliminate it, but after the age of 35, facial asymmetry becomes apparent and muscle tension increases.

Stiffness or pain in your jaw

Problems with the closing of teeth also affect the jaw. Think of it this way, when you walk around with a high heel on one foot and a flat shoe on the other, after a certain period of time, problems with your kneecaps will occur.

Likewise, due to teeth occlusion problems, problems begin to occur in the jaw joints, and the physical manifestation of this problem is stiffness and pain in the jaw bone.

This actually occurs because the muscles that move the jaw bone become stiff and sore.

Pain in our joint when you move your jaw

As we explained in the previous heading, when we move our jaw while eating and chewing, pain occurs in our joint area. These pains become apparent when the problem has progressed further, that is, when there are precursor contacts that have not been treated.

Tooth bite problem and worn teeth

Dental occlusion problems cause the tooth that causes the occlusion problem to wear down over time, and as a result of this wear, hot and cold sensitivity occurs in the tooth.

In advanced cases, sometimes the tooth may need root canal treatment.

Do teeth with bite problems experience night pain?

If the sensitivity of teeth with bite problems is not resolved, it progresses further and starts to cause night pain as a result of the living part of the tooth being affected.

The reason for night pain is that the living part of the tooth is now affected by the current situation and feels the need for root canal treatment.

Does the occlusion problem in the teeth cause a collapse in the face?

Facial deformation is the most common symptom of dental occlusion problems, especially after the age of 35.

Facial asymmetry is deformed as a result of the facial muscles not being able to tolerate this faulty positioning as a result of the incorrect positioning of the teeth.

Snoring and insomnia

When the teeth occlusion problem also affects the breathing organ, that is, when the teeth, which are the carrier system in the mouth, that is, the skeleton of the mouth, do not support the breathing system, the person will experience snoring.

At the same time, insomnia also occurs when breathing is not easy, especially when going to bed at night.

There is no feeling of vigor when waking up from sleep.

Grinding teeth (Bruxism)

As the teeth come into contact with each other, they actually communicate with each other.

In individuals with occlusion problems, there is an irregularity in this communication and as a result of this irregularity, the teeth try to touch each other more and rub against each other in order to maintain a balanced pressure.

In order to maintain this balance, more contact than normal occurs and wear occurs on the teeth.

This causes even more grinding later on, that is, constant grinding followed by wear and tear, grinding after wear, this becomes a complete deadlock for patients. For this reason, it is necessary to solve the occlusion problem before it occurs, and if there is an occlusion problem, it must be resolved.

If the closing problem cannot be solved, it is necessary to at least stop the problem by wearing a night protector at night.
