bleeding gums
Introduction
Introduction Redness and swelling of the gums, or bleeding is one of the common symptoms of the dentistry, called gingival bleeding. Gingival bleeding is most likely to be a periodontal disease. If it is not treated in time, it will cause tooth loss in severe cases.
Cause
Cause
When the plaque in the oral cavity is formed on the surface of the tooth, if it is not removed in time, it can gradually harden and form calculus. The calculus is located at the junction of the tooth and the gum. This hard tartar has a continuous stimulating effect on the gums. When the normal gums are stimulated by inflammation, the capillaries of the gums increase, become hyperemia, and the gums become darker. But if you are stimulated, your gums will easily bleed. This is the cause of gum bleeding. Since gingivitis is an early stage of periodontitis, regular gingival (washing) to remove tartar from the tooth to relieve inflammation of the gums can restore gingivitis.
In periodontitis, not only the gums are bleeding, but also the teeth begin to loosen. Only regular scaling (washing) can not restore the lesions. Only by scaling and other periodontal treatment or periodontal surgery can the symptoms be alleviated.
The general oral theory believes that gum bleeding is caused by the lack of vitamin C in the gum tissue, which triggers the breeding and outbreak of an anaerobic bacteria. This statement is only explained by the surface phenomenon, and actually does not find the root of the problem.
In fact, modern physiological studies have found that bleeding gums is a premature physiological degradation of the gum tissue, which in turn leads to gingival dystrophies. Therefore, simply taking a large amount of vitamin C is a temporary solution. In addition, there are many health care theories that the bleeding of the gums is caused by the fire. There is also a misunderstanding, which is the interpretation of the concept of getting angry. It is widely understood that the 'fire on the fire' belongs to the Western medicine theory, and the traditional Chinese medicine said that 'internal fire' 'wet fire' is completely different concepts. Gum bleeding belongs to the latter's theoretical category, so the majority popular in the market Oral hygiene products, with disinfection and sterilization as a means, have no fundamental effect on the treatment of gum bleeding. There are also some dental products that confuse gum bleeding with traumatic bleeding, and it is far-fetched to say that hemostasis and anti-infection.
To completely solve the problem of bleeding gums, it is necessary to start from the roots, to supplement the nutrition of the gums, to find and provide nutrients that can directly absorb the gums, so that the degraded gum tissue can re-improve the immunity, in order to fundamentally solve the bleeding of the gums. Brought a series of dental problems.
Examine
an examination
Gingival tissue is red, swollen, burning and burning. If the mouth of the periodontal pocket is closed and the drainage of the pus is not smooth, the periodontal abscess may occur and the symptoms such as pain and body odor may occur.
1, the patient complained, such as gums eating hard material bleeding, brushing bleeding, spontaneous blood.
2, oral examination, check the patient's mouth for bleeding gums and related local factors, including gingivitis, calculus, periodontal pockets, local trauma.
3, in line with any of the above two, and exclude bleeding from the source of the digestive tract and respiratory tract, that is, diagnosed as bleeding gums.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
1. The gum tissue is red, swollen, bleeding and burning. If the mouth of the periodontal pocket is closed and the drainage of the pus is not smooth, the periodontal abscess may occur and the symptoms such as pain and body odor may occur. Initial diagnosis: periodontitis.
2, bleeding gums, or accompanied by nasal skin and mucous membrane bleeding, ecchymosis, accompanied by loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, abdominal fullness, weight loss, fatigue, pigmentation, dark complexion, palm texture and skin wrinkles, etc. , or have jaundice fever, ascites, hepatosplenomegaly and so on. Initial diagnosis: cirrhosis of the liver.
3, bleeding gums, early polyuria, nocturia, oliguria in the late stage, or even no urine, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting. In the middle and late mouth, there are ammonia smell, diarrhea, elevated blood pressure, dizziness, headache, memory loss, sleep disorders, and loss of libido, anemia, and bleeding. Initial diagnosis: chronic renal failure.
4, anemia, bleeding, fever, easy infection, etc., patients with palpebral conjunctiva and nail bed pale, bleeding gums, or accompanied by skin and mucous membrane bleeding and visceral bleeding, such as hematemesis, blood in the stool, hematuria, uterine bleeding, fundus hemorrhage and intracranial hemorrhage, etc. Fever and serious infection, body temperature is often above 39 °C. Initial diagnosis: aplastic anemia.
5, bleeding gums, or nosebleeds, skin and mucous membrane bleeding or visceral bleeding, fever, anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, swollen lymph nodes, or headache, vomiting, chest pain, bone and joint pain. Initial diagnosis: leukemia.
6, bleeding gums, tooth pain, gums overflowing. Or both have fundus hemorrhage, or with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, urine sugar or blood glucose positive. Initial diagnosis: diabetes.
