Several dental diseases can cause toothache:

1. Swollen and painful teeth, stomach heat

When teeth become swollen and painful, it often reflects stomach problems in terms of its relationship with the internal organs. Stomach heat is often the cause of swollen and painful teeth, and is also accompanied by thirst, constipation, nausea, abdominal distension, etc. In severe cases, the teeth may become severely red and swollen, and then develop into gum erosion.

If you always find your gums bleeding when brushing your teeth, sometimes you will find blood marks on food when you take a bite. Of course you would say this is periodontitis, but bleeding teeth may also be related to liver disease. This phenomenon is common in patients with chronic liver disease and is also accompanied by nose bleeding and heavy menstruation.

3. Loose teeth and osteoporosis

Loose teeth usually occur when people reach middle age. Usually at that time, with the arrival of menopause, the increase in age causes the condition of bones to deteriorate and bone density to decrease. The main reason for loose and falling teeth is the weak alveolar bone. If the whole body is suffering from severe osteoporosis, alveolar bone osteoporosis is very likely to occur.

4. Missing teeth and incomplete nutrition

Healthy and beautiful teeth are a sign of human health. If your teeth are not straight or are missing, you should check your nutrition problems, at least don't be picky or overeating. Insufficient or excessive nutrition can cause incomplete tooth formation and brittle tooth texture.
