Health

My mother has lost her taste of mouth from last 2 months except chilli taste. She is 62 years old, living in India.

Ans: Taste buds become blunt particularly over the tip of the tongue and sides of the tongue
So one really need to pep up the spices to feel their existence.
Particularly those who are sharp in their mind.
So it is good to have chilly but please ask her to go for green chilly and pepper spice than redchillies

Question by Mahesh - Jan 18, 2025Hindi

Health

My mother age is 45+. her teeth are shaking and root of teeth are visible. One of dentist suggested to remove the old teeth and replace it. But my mother doesn’t want to replace. Is there any other treatment for cure. Because of this she is unable to eat properly and it affected her health. Please tell what to do

Ans: Hello
The condition you describe is rather common and usually linked to poor oral hygiene. Mobility of teeth and exposure of the roots is caused by abnormal recession of gums and simultaneous bone loss.
Please consult a Periodontist (a dentist who has specialised in treatment of diseases of the gums and jawbone). Provided the condition is not severe, it may be possible to save her teeth with periodontal surgery which may involve placement of bone grafting material or bone substitutes.
