Dynamics of Shift - Movement
Question:
I was diagnosed with diabetes about two years ago. During that same period of time I had begun to notice my front teeth shifting and pain in my upper gums. I understand I have suffered some bone loss as well.
I have NEVER had a gap in my teeth and now I do. I do a tremendous amount of public speaking. Can you tell me what is happening and what I can do about it? ... Visitor from OK
Answer:
It sounds like you have periodontal disease and/or a bruxing habit. I suggest you see a dentist ASAP to determine exactly what you have.
