Have Problem In Teeth. Is In Coma For A Long Time? What Could The Reason?

Bedridden male patient with right brain damage in coma in nursing facility for 7 months, now bottom teeth are not even with top teeth as they were when admitted. Bottom teeth seem to be moving backward toward throat and tongue is not out and flat as it was. Have you heard of this before. Patient is kept lying down.

I 'm sorry I have no money to pay.

Thank You kindly

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

According to your clinical history i suspect that the bottom tooth are mobile, such type of tooth need to be extracted to avoid any complications.
As the patient is in coma i would suggest you to call a Dentist and get the checkup done to see what can be done.
Discuss with the Dentist.

Take care.
