Possible Causes of Loose Teeth

Posted on 6/5/2023 by office
Loose teeth in children may indicate a rite of passage. However, teeth mobility in adults may be a big concern. Gum tissues and periodontal ligament play a crucial role in holding the teeth in place. Therefore, when the teeth become loose, chances are there are issues affecting these tissues. Continue reading to learn the common causes of loose teeth. Periodontal Diseases Periodontal disease is among the leading causes of loose teeth. It involves infection of the gums due to poor oral hygiene habits.
