What are the key points to stay away from periodontal disease?
In our daily life, we often see a large number of patients with periodontal disease in the population. Many patients often have to have their teeth removed because of periodontal disease, such as gingival bleeding, purulent gingival sulcus, and loose teeth. Periodontitis is a kind of oral disease, and the main symptom of periodontitis is gingival bleeding.
Almost all patients with periodontal disease will have bleeding gums of varying severity.
In recent years, the incidence of periodontal disease has a tendency to increase significantly, so it is necessary to prevent the occurrence of periodontal disease.
So how should we stay away from periodontal disease? Here are eight key points about staying away from periodontal disease: 1. Oral hygiene.
There are more than 20 kinds of bacteria in the mouth.
New plaque will form 1 to 6 hours after cleaning the tooth surface, leading to dental disease.
Brush your teeth at the age of three.
Brush your teeth within 3 minutes after eating, 3 minutes at a time, 3 times a day.
If have difficulty, should accomplish after a meal gargle, morning and evening brush teeth.
Especially before bed brushing is more important than brushing in the morning.
Toothbrush should be selected soft and elastic health toothbrush, clean after use, the toothbrush head upwards placed to dry.
To develop the habit of brushing in turn, brush the upper teeth, brush the bristles down the teeth seam, brush the lower teeth should be from the bottom to the top, do not violently brush back and forth, otherwise it will cause gum retreat and tooth tissue into wedge weave damage.
2. Pay attention to oral exercises.
Should OFTEN EAT CRUDE FIBER food, chew adequately, can stimulate SALIVA secretion, scOUR dirt, BE helpful for tooth white and clean, and can strengthen periodontal organization.
Get into the habit of chewing on both sides.
Otherwise, it will cause disuse gingival atrophy and facial deformity.
Advocate TO USE THE RIGHT HAND THAT WASHES CLEAN TO INDICATE, PRESS TO MAKE LATERAL MASSAGE BACK AND FORTH ON UPPER AND LOWER GINGIVA, 2-3 MINUTES EACH TIME.
It can enhance the blood flow of the heel and surrounding tissues, which is beneficial to the function of periodontal tissue.
(1) drum gargle: bite teeth, stir two cheeks, repeated dozens of times, such as saliva full mouth, then points a few times slowly swallow.
Drum GARgle BASICALLY IS TO MAKE INSIDE ORAL CAVITY MORE UNRIPE BODY FLUID, in order TO HELP DIGEST AND CAN CLEAN ORAL CAVITY, EXERCISE ALL ROUND MUSCLE, TWO gILLS ARE FULL.
(2) tongue transport: the tongue in the mouth up and down around the “movement”, respectively stretching to the inside and outside of the teeth, until the saliva increased gargle ten remaining, and then divided into a mouthful or a few mouth down.
Tongue transport is effective in preventing and treating senile oral mucous membrane disease and tongue atrophy. It can stimulate the secretion of salivary fluid, moisten the stomach and intestines, contribute to the function of the spleen and stomach, and prevent bitter halitosis.
(3) Tapping teeth: close your mouth and knock your upper and lower teeth dozens of times every morning and evening, and try to touch all the teeth when tapping.
Long-term adherence can enhance the firmness of the teeth, promote the blood circulation of the periodontal tissue, enhance the resistance of the periodontal tissue, so that the teeth are not easy to loosen and fall off.
3, effectively improve the teeth and oral immune ability.
According to their own “sub-health” symptoms, choosing biological products similar to “tooth gold” can remove subgingival calculus as soon as possible, effectively restore and activate the immune function of gingival and oral cavity, and kill periodontal disease in the bud.
At the same time, you can choose appropriate toothpaste, toothbrush, dental floss, to avoid the choice of inappropriate oral care products that lead to the deterioration of gum problems.
4, gargle with tea can decontamination, sterilization and anti-inflammatory.
Tea leaves contain high levels of fluoride, which is essential for the proper development and mineralization of teeth and bone.
Fluoride ions can change the hydroxyapatite in tooth enamel into fluorapatite, improve the structure of tooth enamel, enhance its acid resistance, and inhibit the propagation of cariogenic bacteria.
In addition, tea also contains tea polyphenols and other substances that can inhibit the proliferation of Streptococcus mutans (cariogenic bacteria) in the mouth.
5. Pay close attention to early signs of periodontal disease.
If you brush your teeth or eat, the phenomenon of bleeding gums should be paid attention to as soon as possible, because this is the performance of periodontal inflammation, should be treated as soon as possible to the hospital, check the situation of subgingival calculus, and gingival atrophy.
6, the prevention of periodontitis also includes the health prevention consciousness of paying attention to diet.
Do not drink soft drinks, such as iced tea, cola, lemonade and other carbonated drinks, which can cause varying degrees of damage to your teeth.
Especially pay attention to before going to bed, just after eating acidic food, such as lemon, grapefruit juice, do not brush your teeth immediately, acid liquid easy to make the tooth surface enamel softening, brushing at this time easy to destroy tooth enamel, leading to tooth loss, should rinse your mouth first, after a period of time and then brush your teeth.
7. Develop healthy eating habits.
Pay attention to the diet structure to balanced nutrition, eat more white meat, eggs, vegetables, fruits and other good for dental and oral health food;
Try to eat less sugary foods, do not smoke, drink less alcohol, eat more chewy foods rich in fiber, effectively increase the secretion of saliva, conducive to the teeth and mouth clean.
8, the prevention of periodontitis also includes regular oral health examination.
If conditions are available, children should be guaranteed every six months, adults once a year, to the public hospital dental specialist for oral and dental health examination;
Go to the hospital every six months or a year to wash your teeth and remove subgingival calculus in time.
The three main symptoms of periodontitis are 1. The formation of periodontal pocket due to the expansion of inflammation, the periodontal membrane is destroyed, the alveolar bone is gradually absorbed, the gingiva and the tooth root are separated, so that the gingival groove is deepened and the periodontal pocket is formed.
The depth of the periodontal pocket can be measured with a probe.
2, periodontal purulent periodontal pocket wall ulcer and inflammatory granulation tissue formation, purulent secretions in the bag remain, so gently press the gingiva, visible purulent.
And often bad breath.
3, tooth loosening due to the destruction of periodontal tissue, especially when the alveolar bone resorption is aggravated, the support teeth strength is insufficient, the occurrence of tooth loosening, displacement and other phenomena.
At this time, patients often feel weak bite, dull pain, gum bleeding and bad breath aggravation.
When the body’s resistance is reduced, periodontal pocket exudate drainage is not free, can form periodontal abscess, periodontitis development to the late stage, the emergence of deep periodontal pocket is a common accompanied by symptoms.
