Today is the third day of the new year. I wish everyone a good smile and delicious food.
However, to eat happily and smile well, one cannot do without a good tooth.
Presumably, in the past two days, everyone has eaten [all the dishes are done and the cups and plates are in chaos]. I sleep every day [I don’t know the imperial palace in the sky, what year is this evening].
Then the question arises. Apart from being popular and spicy, have you done a good job in oral and dental care?
Today, Dr. Clove compiled 15 tips for oral care for everyone-
1. Don’t push hard, brush your teeth horizontally.
Is it brute force that enables human beings to stand at the top of the food chain? It is a lie to do miracles vigorously! Vigorous will only bleed!
Long years of vigorous horizontal brushing may cause tooth neck defects, gingival atrophy, etc. The most direct symptom is tooth sensitivity, which can’t stand when drunk cold.
2. The correct way to brush your teeth is-
The toothbrush should be tilted 45 degrees towards the gums and placed at the junction of the teeth and gums.
Then gently and slightly tremble, brushing one or two at a time.
And every side of the tooth: the outer side, the tongue side and the biting side should be brushed.
At the end of this process, there is no need for 998 or 98. It takes only 2 minutes at a time, which is shorter than defecating time. After brushing, you can spit fragrance from your mouth.
Fluoride toothpaste is a good thing!
Why is fluoride toothpaste recommended?
First, one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent tooth decay is to use fluoride toothpaste.
However, the fourth national oral health epidemiological survey found that 40% of adults are not using fluoride toothpaste.
Some people worry that fluoride-containing toothpaste will be poisoned by fluoride if it is used too much, so they buy fluoride-free toothpaste specially. In fact, the dose of fluoride in toothpaste is far from poisoning.
The second is because fluoride toothpaste contains [Fu]!
Step 4 Brush your teeth twice a day
Brushing your teeth twice a day is the recommended frequency.
However, data from the Fourth National Oral Health Epidemiological Survey show that nearly 70% of the people still fail to brush their teeth twice a day.
Once in the morning and once in the evening, it actually takes 4 minutes a day. Even if every tooth is stained with rain and dew, it can be divided into 8 seconds, which is shorter than the time for a trembling sound.
STEP 5 Learn to floss
For people who do not have the habit of picking their teeth, there is a kind of food called Schrodinger’s food.
[You never know whether the food hidden between your teeth was from last week or last month.]
It may be a shredded meat or a vegetable leaf. You never knew Schrodinger’s food would fall out of his teeth during what.
If you feel sick, use floss.
If you don’t like dental floss, the dental impactor is also good.
But don’t use toothpicks, they will not only make you look especially capable of playing, but also poke your teeth bigger and bigger.
Step 6 Brush your tongue
There are many bacteria living on the tongue. Some pathogenic bacteria can cause tooth decay, periodontitis and other diseases, while others can bring embarrassing halitosis.
But these bacteria are like leeks in the field. When brushing your teeth, you can cut off some of them by lightly brushing your tongue.
7. Wash your teeth every year
The fourth national oral health epidemiological survey showed that the detection rate of tartar reached 96.7% among the middle-aged people aged 35 to 44.
Tar calculus is the most direct hidden danger of gingivitis and periodontitis. If it is not removed, there may be gingival bleeding, halitosis and other problems. Tar calculus cannot be removed by brushing teeth, and can only be washed off by washing teeth.
Washing teeth does not loosen or widen the teeth, but periodontitis will occur. Dentists themselves wash their teeth once a year or even half a year.
Step 8 Don’t bite hard objects
New Year’s Day is full of entertainment, and entertainment is full of drinking. Sometimes when beer bottles are served and there is no bottle opener, there will always be people who volunteer to send the bottles to their mouths.
Ladies and gentlemen, please believe that it is not handsome to open a wine bottle with your teeth. On the contrary, it is very embarrassing to accidentally break your teeth.
Although teeth are the hardest tissues in the body, they will also be worn away by years and will be worn away by years of refusal. Therefore, young people should not be fearless and always bite hard objects.
However, the most terrible consequence of biting hard objects is that the teeth collapse accidentally. If it is light, it will fill the teeth, while if it is heavy, it will be extracted.
Therefore, never open beer bottles with your teeth again!
Step 9 Don’t smoke
Lung injury, kidney injury and whole body injury will not be mentioned.
Think about the black and yellow teeth of some middle-aged and elderly men and the dense smell of tobacco in their conversation. Do you want to become like this?
Moreover, smoking is also closely related to periodontitis, and severe periodontitis can also lead to tooth loss.
10. The small black hole of teeth is a bottomless pit for burning money.
When there is a small black hole in the tooth, it indicates tooth decay. The earlier the tooth decay is treated, the better. The longer it is delayed, the bigger the hole becomes, which may lead to pulpitis and periapical periodontitis…….
A few hundred dollars is good for the treatment of shallow caries. Pulpitis and periapical periodontitis require a series of treatments such as root canal therapy. The price has doubled several times. And there is no original tooth to use.
11. Wisdom teeth pulled out earlier,
Although wisdom teeth have a good name, in fact most people’s wisdom teeth are useless.
Modern people’s jaws often have less bone mass, which leads to wisdom teeth growing [crooked melons and cracked dates]. It is not only difficult to clean, but also easy to cause inflammation, tooth decay and other problems.
Therefore, wisdom teeth should be pulled out as early as possible.
12. Gingival bleeding may be a periodontal disease.
If there is frequent gingival bleeding, we must pay attention to it, which may be gingivitis or even periodontitis.
13. Halitosis may be due to poor cleaning.
Some people look beautiful on the surface, but one mouth can smoke to death.
Here is a self-test method: lick the skin of your wrist with your tongue and smell it after saliva volatilizes. If the smell is enough to make you frown, then you need to be on guard.
There are many reasons for halitosis. If cleaning cannot be improved, you must go to a doctor.
14. Tooth whitening can be done in the hospital [cold light]
If you want to whiten your teeth, whitening toothpaste has little effect, whitening toothpaste has some effect. The effect is obvious but we should be on guard, and the damage to teeth may be very large.
If there is a strong demand for whitening, it is still recommended to go to the hospital for [cold light whitening].
15. Oral care is definitely the most valuable investment.
It doesn’t take much time and money to brush your teeth and floss every day. But if you don’t do it well, you will definitely bleed your wallet-
Several hundred pieces of tooth extraction and filling
Root canal therapy is less than 2,000 yuan.
10,000 dental implants
These prices are only the price of a tooth! Some old people who do full dental implants may have to spend hundreds of thousands at a time.
Therefore, by doing a good job in oral hygiene, you are equivalent to saving money for a car.
Finally, I wish everyone a happy Spring Festival again!
