Surgeries and Procedures: Casts and Splints. Broken bones, or fractures, are a common hazard of childhood. And although breaking a bone takes only a split-second fall off the jungle gym or a quick collision on the soccer field, the healing process takes a bit longer.
In some cases, you may even grind your teeth back and forth, further stretching the ligaments. This can cause your teeth to feel loose in the mornings. Another common cause of loose teeth is gum disease. When plaque and other deposits begin to develop beneath the gum line, an infection can occur. When left untreated, this infection can destroy gum tissue and damage the periodontal ligaments holding your tooth in place.
Teeth that feel loose and can be moved by your other teeth can be loose because of bone loss around the teeth. The bone loss can be from periodontal disease which is a inflammation of the gums caused by bacterial infection. Teeth can also become loose from excessive clenching and grinding either at night or during the day. Often times we can make a bite plate to wear at night or during the day. Sometimes you can think your teeth feel loose but they aren't, this can occur from clenching and grinding or just from a stressful period in your life.
