Common Causes of Tooth Loss
Dr. Kevin Hogan • June 12, 2015
Why Do Adults Lose Permanent Teeth?
It can be puzzling why some adults are prone to lose permanent teeth and others are not. Here are the top three reasons that adults tend to lose teeth:
- Gum Disease: Gum disease is actually the leading cause of tooth loss for adults. To prevent this nasty disease from spreading in your mouth it is imperative to practice good oral hygiene, such as brushing at least twice a day, flossing daily and visiting with Dr. Hogan every six months.
- Cavities or Tooth Decay: If you ever feel a cavity forming in your mouth, it is important to visit with Dr. Hogan immediately. Cavities that are left to fester on their own can wreak havoc and may destroy a tooth.
- Trauma: Many athletes or people horsing around can receive trauma to the mouth region strong enough to knock out a tooth. Practice good habits by wearing mouth guards when participating in physical contact sports or activities.
