Oral health status is a mirror that reflects the quality of life and health
People do not care about dental health. Attract enough attention. There is still a folk saying that toothache is not a disease, and there are many misunderstandings.
Misunderstandings

Misunderstanding

It is a natural and inevitable law that old teeth will become obsolete
The World Health Organization and the United Nations Dental Federation (FDI) have formulated specific oral health goals based on the goal of health care for all by the year 2000 adopted by the World Health Assembly in 1979. It is necessary for everyone to enjoy complete basic oral health and keep teeth, jaws and related structures in the best functional state

Oral health investment concept
After people solved their food and clothing needs, they proposed a higher level of cultural enjoyment. Among urban people, people generally pay attention to intellectual investment and are willing to spend money to cultivate the intelligence of only children. However, there are still few people who can actively spend money on oral health and invest in health.
Most people passively wait until they become sick. , go to the doctor and spend money on treatment

Pay attention to the world's third largest disease
--Caries
The structure of teeth
Primary and permanent teeth

It is caused by bacteria. A disease in which the hard tissue of the teeth undergoes chronic and progressive destruction under the influence of various factors
The cause of dental caries
The progression of dental caries
Dental disease is One of the diseases that harms the largest number of people. Based on the prevalence rate of dental caries alone of 37.3%, there are 1.1 billion teeth in my country that need to be filled.
Dental caries has been ranked as the third most important disease in the world, after coronary heart disease and cancer.
Focus on prevention, combine prevention and treatment, use treatment to nourish prevention, and prevention promotes treatment.
The most basic, important and economical way to protect dental health is to brush your teeth.
How to brush your teeth and rinse your mouth correctly
The correct method of brushing your teeth is to use the vertical brushing method.
Brush your teeth three times a day, brushing three sides each time for three minutes each time.
Standardizing and institutionalizing the frequency, scope and time is of great practical significance for preventing dental diseases.
What toothbrush is the most reasonable to choose? Use a brushed health care toothbrush
The latest report is that repeated colds may be caused by toothbrushes.
Toothbrush maintenance: One toothbrush per person to prevent cross-infection. Rinse it several times with clean water after brushing to dry the moisture between the hairs.
It is better to change your toothbrush once a month, no more than three months at most.
It is better to brush your teeth with warm water. Teeth can metabolize only at an oral temperature of 35°C to 36°C. The appropriate water temperature for brushing your teeth should be 35°C to 37°C.
How to rinse your mouth correctly
Rinsing your mouth is a simple and easy method of cleaning your teeth and health care.
The correct way to gargle: Hold the mouthwash in your mouth, clench your back teeth, and use the muscles of your lips and cheeks to gargle through the gaps between your teeth.
Drinking tea has a good effect on protecting teeth. Tea can block the production of a bacterial enzyme.
Can medicated toothpaste cure dental disease?
It is only an auxiliary product for oral health care and cannot cure diseases.
It can be roughly divided according to its efficacy: anti-caries toothpaste, anti-gingivitis toothpaste, plaque removal toothpaste, and anti-acid toothpaste.
Children should use children's toothpaste, and children should use medicated toothpaste with caution.
Toothpaste should be sold as it is used, pay attention to the shelf life, and stop using it immediately if you have any allergies.
Cleaning your teeth can prevent heart attacks
Improper tooth brushing, food debris, parasitic bacteria, sticky components of saliva, and exfoliated epithelial cells can mix to form dental plaque, which can secrete enzyme toxins and toxins that damage teeth and periodontal tissue.
Dental plaque calcifies into dental calculus, causing greater damage to the gums and alveolar bone.
The bacterial proteins of dental plaque enter the capillaries of the inflamed gums and periodontal tissues, causing venous blood coagulation and forming the pathological basis of a potential heart attack.
Tooth and gum infections are indeed independent risk factors for heart attacks.
A brief discussion on tooth scaling
What is tooth scaling: one is to remove tooth surface pigments (smoke stains and rust); the other is called scaling in medicine, which mainly removes tooth surface pigments. Plaque and tartar on the surface.
Plaque is an unmineralized bacterial deposit. Dental plaque has been recognized as the main foreign pathogenic bacteria causing inflammatory periodontal disease. Tartar is mineralized plaque and other deposits.
The persistence of both on the tooth surface - gum swelling and bleeding - can cause loosening and loss of teeth in severe cases.
A brief talk about teeth cleaning
It is necessary to go to the hospital as soon as possible and timely to remove it. It is not only the first step in treating periodontal disease, but also the best way to prevent the further development of periodontal disease.
Special reminder: Teeth cleaning is a highly professional and technical work, and you must go to a regular hospital.
It needs to be emphasized: Brushing teeth carefully and effectively is an oral health care method that cannot be replaced by any method.
