Interproximal occlusion is a common oral disease in clinic, which is often ignored by people. Some patients mention the problem of impaction by the way when they see other oral diseases, and few patients come to the hospital specially to solve the impaction.
In fact, caulking is a very important thing. Because it can ferment and corrupt the caulked food to produce peculiar smell, the gums of the caulked part are inflamed and swollen, and it is easy to bleed and cause swelling and pain. Over time, it can lead to gingival atrophy, alveolar bone absorption, and even more serious tooth loosening and falling. So we can’t ignore it. The solution is to find out the causes first and then deal with them.
