Feudal Bad Habits Kill People
Traditional culture often determines people’s thinking inertia. Even young people in the new era are afraid of [losing out in front of them] when they lack life experience, especially when they dare not disobey the old people. However, from the perspective of modern science, do you often find some unscientific places when examining some traditional habits?
[As the saying goes] There is a game between empiricism and modern science that speaks of evidence. I don’t want to criticize too much for the traditional Chinese confinement habit, but there is one thing I must shout loudly: confinement without brushing teeth is definitely a bad habit, and this bad habit must be changed!
For women’s teeth, For the sake of women’s health, For the sake of the quality of a woman’s life, More is breast-feeding baby. Please prick up your ears to listen to me, you think I have reason to change, immediately change, but also tell your mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, girlfriends, relatives and neighbors. Think there is no reason can also be. I believe my efforts will make some women sober, even a small part of me will be very gratified.
Human behavior is greatly influenced by the surrounding environment, The Chinese people’s [conformity] mentality is especially obvious. The elder sister of the neighbor’s family does not brush her teeth during confinement. How did the second girl in the village brush her teeth? My mother said that she could not drink cold water, and my mother also said that she could not brush her teeth. Well, I will also cover my teeth, not brush my teeth, not drink cold water, not take a bath, plus all kinds of supplements and nutritious meals in the confinement, and eat them eight times a day. How is the result coming down?
Full of stench, oily head and smooth face, unclean skin macula, lice harassment and itching, oral ulcer, smoked breath, gingival edema, full mouth hemorrhage, yellowing of teeth, gingival atrophy, alveolar bone absorption, tooth drift and loosening… This is the consequence of not brushing teeth for 30 days! So there appeared a [common saying] called: This sentence is widely used in China and in large fertility countries such as Mexico. However, it is this bad habit that causes irreversible damage such as loose and falling teeth. Ignorant people may also say: If you did not brush your teeth, you would fall faster if you brushed your teeth. In fact, the opposite is true!
In fact, in Europe, America and other countries, There is no such thing as confinement after women give birth. A few days after they give birth, Do what you have to do. Take a bath, wash your hair, brush your teeth and eat green vegetables (some places have such a saying, It is said that the mother eats green vegetables, the baby will have diarrhea), shopping, etc. It is the same as usual. I also didn’t see the symptoms of what’s loose teeth and headache. Now it is the 21st century, and the thoughts of young mothers should also step into the modern era at the same time. Don’t be influenced too much by the wrong ideas of the older generation of mothers-in-law. Persistence is victory!
Everyone has different requirements for quality of life, Some people only want the most basic food and clothing, Some people yearn for safety and comfort, Some people pursue spiritual abundance, Some people need to be respected and recognized by the society at the same time. Different levels of requirements for themselves will naturally lead to different investments in their own health. Today, when food and clothing are safe, the general trend makes people pay much more attention to oral health than before liberation. People need to understand how much influence oral health will bring to the road of life.
Nowadays, people will actively learn common knowledge of tooth protection, Accept the new concept of tooth protection, We are fortunate to be in an era of listening, It is also an era of encouraging communication. 50 years ago, no matter how you went to popular science confinement and how you needed to protect your teeth, I believe no one will pay attention to you and think that you are mentally ill. Today’s discussion of these traditional issues will also attract criticism. So what, listening or not listening is your choice. I choose to express my ideas here, hoping to help young mothers not return to before liberation in a month.
Why do confinement also need to brush your teeth?
Is it a what concept that the confinement lasts for 30 days and 30 days without brushing teeth? Think about it. It’s what’s feeling not to take a bath for 30 days. Will it stink? Brushing teeth is a must in daily life. The operation is simple and day after day. In order to keep teeth healthy, it is recommended to brush teeth three times a day for three minutes each time and floss together.
Ordinary people may not find it hard to brush their teeth in three minutes, But women in confinement, Because the body consumes a lot, The first week after delivery is especially weak. At this time, Even the pregnant woman who can’t take care of recovering her physical strength, Oral hygiene is often neglected. In addition, the soft tissue in the oral cavity is sensitive due to hormone changes in the oral cavity. Some people think that brushing your teeth will scratch your gums, so they don’t want to brush your teeth. In fact, you should carefully clean your teeth with warm water and a soft toothbrush at this time, instead of avoiding brushing your teeth. Confinement lasts for about a month. If you don’t brush your teeth during this month, you will suffer from a series of oral diseases.
Why? Let’s start with what being tartar. The medical name of tartar is plaque, which is a layer of biological film deposited on the teeth continuously. It consists of food residue, oral epithelial cells, saliva, and bacteria. There are more bacteria stationed in a person’s mouth than in the world’s population. These bacteria adhere to the surface of teeth and can rapidly multiply and form countless layers of dental plaque.
Can you think about these things together? Is dental plaque like what? Can we see it with our naked eyes? Plaque is a soft and colorless film attached to the tooth surface. Unless it accumulates to a certain thickness and turns white, it is difficult to see. It is mainly located near the gums and between the teeth. It can be seen by scraping the tooth surface back and forth with fingernails a few times.
There are more than 25,000 kinds of bacteria in dental plaque, Streptococcus mutans and anaerobic bacteria are mainly found at the beginning of formation. As that plaque accumulate to a certain thickness, Bacteria inside it next to the tooth surface begin an anaerobic glycolysis reaction due to isolation from the air. Anaerobic glycolysis produces acids here. Wrapped by dental plaque and clinging to the tooth surface, it cannot be washed away by saliva in time, and will begin to corrode enamel and further develop into dental caries. Dental plaque accumulated at the root will not only lead to root caries, but also stimulate gingival tissue, which is the main culprit leading to gingivitis and periodontal disease.
The rate of tartar production is amazing. It will be produced within 1 hour after brushing your teeth. Tar calculus is also unambiguous. It starts to deposit 8 hours after tartar formation. Yes, 8 hours, this is [tartar speed]! After knowing the above knowledge, how often should you brush your teeth? Is it what’s concept not to brush your teeth for 30 days during the month? One woman said [after washing her teeth, she felt relaxed and even lost weight! ]
