We Know When A Simple Problem Can Become Serious
By the Premier Dental Esthetics team, led by Dr. Peter S. Young, DDS, MAGD
Today in the Premier Dental Esthetics – Peter S. Young, DDS dental blog we are going to discuss those small irritations in the mouth that have the potential to become big problems. Injuries, sores, or inflammation in the mouth can be very uncomfortable. These non-specific irritations, called stomatitis in Arcadia, have many different causes, but it’s best to get them taken care of as soon as possible.
What is Stomatitis in Arcadia?
They may be caused by cold sores, gum disease, teeth grinding, or biting the inside of your mouth. They may also be linked to broken teeth or braces. In fact, any inflammation of the membranes in the mouth can be classified as stomatitis. Stomatitis can impact a person’s ability to speak, eat, and even to fall asleep at night. Fortunately, most of these irritations clear up on their own within a couple of weeks. However, there is a possibility that a viral or bacterial infection can occur. It’s important to let your dentist know about these sores if they don’t clear up after several weeks. Even if there are no complications, your dentist can help you treat the symptoms of stomatitis in Arcadia.
