What does the sign of biting your tongue mean?

Do you often wake up with small sores on your tongue or cheeks? Do you observe the formation of small bumps on the soft tissues in your mouth after eating? In this case, we can talk not about a bad habit, but about the possible development of a chronic disease. Don’t understand why constant cheek biting requires consultation with a specialist, and don’t believe in the serious consequences of ignoring the problem? But in vain, according to statistics, frequent, chronic injuries to the mucous membrane can become a factor in the development of precancerous diseases. In addition to the loss of the aesthetic appearance of the tongue and cheeks, they threaten to deteriorate their overall health.

Main symptoms of cheek and tongue biting

Biting the cheeks or tongue during sleep or while eating is characterized by excessive pressure from the chewing teeth. Because of this, white abrasions first form on the mucous membranes in the mouth (something like a callus). Over time, wounds appear in their place, which bleed, take a long time to heal, and cause pain. As a result, it becomes uncomfortable to talk, brush your teeth, and even eat. When examined by a dentist, such severe damage to the soft tissues in the mouth is diagnosed as an inflammatory process.

First aid

If a person bites his tongue in a dream, he is provided with timely medical assistance. It is important to stop the bleeding - the open area becomes infected.

To do this, compress the bitten area with a cotton pad soaked in antiseptic. The wound is disinfected with hydrogen peroxide or chlorhexedine.

After the bleeding has stopped, the affected area is carefully examined. Shallow damage is treated and treated at home.

Cold compresses help relieve pain. Ice wrapped in a cloth is applied to the affected area. Hold the compress for 30 seconds.

Herbal infusions of chamomile, calendula, and aloe are used as an analgesic. Furacilin solution also promotes rapid healing. The following will help eliminate pain, disinfect, and relieve inflammation:

• Miramistin;
• Chlorhexedine;
• The gel was used.

The ulcer is treated for 2-5 minutes in the morning and evening.

Causes of tongue biting:

• A bad habit due to nervous tension. Essentially these are uncontrolled movements in stressful situations.
• Bruxism is excessive clenching of the jaws during sleep, during which the jaws move relative to each other and damage the soft tissues in the mouth.
• Malocclusion of teeth, usually due to misalignment of wisdom teeth. The characteristic sideways tilt or rotation changes the shape of the dental arch. This allows the cheek to fit into the gap as the jaws join.
• Poorly performed prosthetics disrupts the correct closure of teeth and makes it possible to capture the mucous membrane during chewing.
• The effect of anesthesia after the removal or filling of teeth is the lack of sensitivity of the cheeks and lips and their increase, which contributes to the biting of soft tissues and the formation of small wounds.

If such symptoms are detected, it is recommended to consult a dentist, who, in addition to examination, in some cases prescribes histological examinations. Sometimes a complete diagnosis also requires consultation with a neurologist.

Cut or bitten tongue

Apply cold (ice) to the injured area. If there is bleeding, apply pressure with a bandage or rolled cloth, and if it does not stop within 15 minutes or is not controlled by pressing, go to the emergency room or call an ambulance.

I live next to the clinic, and after an adult office opened in pediatric dentistry, I decided to get professional oral hygiene done. After teeth cleaning and competent consultation, a course of treatment was prescribed. I had an appointment with an experienced doctor, she has a “light hand”, the injections with anesthesia are painless, and after that you don’t feel anything at all. I felt calm and comfortable because they talked about every action in advance. During the process I did not worry about anything, they told me what to do and were constantly interested in my condition. I was pleased with the result, you can confidently go and not be afraid of anything! Thanks to Daria Andreevna Sobolevskaya. read more…

How to get rid of the problem of biting your cheek from the inside?

The only sure way to solve such a problem is to quickly contact a professional dentist.

Options for solving the problem:

• Grind and polish the sharp edges of the teeth that touch the mucous membrane;
• Prescribe orthodontic treatment. Mouthguards for bruxism, aligners correcting minor malocclusions. The plate also allows you to reduce the clenching force of the jaws and protects the teeth from rapid abrasion (plates are installed for children under 14 years of age). Install a braces system to correct serious inaccuracies of malocclusion.
• Correction of the location of wisdom teeth or their complete removal.
• Restoration of damaged teeth, removal of old ones, reinstallation of fillings, dentures depending on their location in the jaw.
