Since there is no shortage of money, why don’t many people have their teeth cleaned?
A lot of people are clearly not poor money, why not complete the teeth?
Even if not whole teeth, teeth cleaning always can!
Why is that?
The awareness of oral health is very weak in China. Even with the wealth, the awareness of oral health has not changed much.
Even some upper middle class “tuhao” spend little effort and money on oral care and treatment.
“Local tyrants” spending contrast: vehicle maintenance – thousands of thousands of alcohol, tobacco, cosmetics, January spending at a time — January thousands of catering entertainment – tens of thousands of oral care in January?
(About no budget) teeth cleaning, the most basic and most important dental care – oral health care What is a teeth cleaning?
Tooth cleaning, commonly known as tooth cleaning, is the technical term supragingival scaling, which refers to the removal of supragingival calculus, plaque and color stains with cleaning instruments, and polishing the tooth surface to delay the re-deposition of plaque and calculus.
Because tooth stone once formed, by ordinary brushing is unable to remove, must use more advantageous cleaning means – cleaning teeth.
Benefits of tooth cleaning: 1. Remove dental stones, so that the teeth show their original color.
2. Remove dental stones to prevent periodontal disease.
3. Prevent gum receding.
The misunderstanding that cleans a tooth 1, wash a tooth can damage a tooth?
In fact, the hardness of tooth enamel on the tooth surface is very high, which is 3-4 times that of bone. The ultrasonic teeth cleaning machine itself does no harm to the teeth, and the correct and standardized operation will not damage the teeth.
But if done incorrectly, slight scratches will appear.
It is recommended to go to the dental hospital of professional standard so that polishing should be carried out generally after cleaning teeth.
2. Must be polished?
Polishing after cleaning is like waxing after washing a car.
Ultrasonic cleaning can sometimes leave microscopic scratches on the tooth surface, resulting in a subtle roughness of the tooth surface, which can easily accumulate color stains and calculus.
Polishing can make the teeth brighter and the tooth surface smoother, thus slowing down the attachment of plaque and pigment and the formation of calculus.
In addition, polishing can also reduce tooth sensitivity after cleaning.
3. The teeth should turn white after cleaning, right?
Let’s start by correcting the myth that healthy teeth are pure white, like the teeth of models in toothpaste commercials.
This is actually wrong.
The structure of a normal tooth is a transparent layer of enamel that contains yellowish dentin, so that some of the color of the dentin is revealed, so the color of a normal tooth should be yellowish.
Dental cleaning is only a treatment to maintain periodontal health, and can not make the teeth themselves white.
After cleaning, however, your teeth will look cleaner and your mouth will feel more relaxed and comfortable because the dirt is removed.
4. Can cleaning loosen your teeth?
Loosening phenomenon is not caused by cleaning, these patients themselves are more serious periodontal disease, alveolar bone has been absorbed, periodontal fibers are destroyed, teeth have been loose.
Because of the “splint effect” of the calculus and get temporary “support”, usually do not feel the teeth loose.
After the calculus is “washed out,” the tooth becomes “isolated,” and the tooth becomes loose again.
5, wash teeth can give a lot of blood?
Gingival bleeding is more because of inflammation, bleeding is often a reflection of the degree of inflammation, inflammation control or elimination of bleeding will reduce or disappear.
In addition, when cleaning teeth, mixed with water and saliva from the head of the cleaning machine, can also cause a lot of bleeding illusion.
6. After cleaning, the gap between the teeth becomes larger and the teeth become longer.
The accumulation of calculus and the inflammation of the gums will lead to the local swelling of the gums to fill the gap between the teeth. After the removal of calculus, the swelling of the gums will gradually subside, and the gap between the teeth will become obvious. The contour of the teeth will be more obvious when the tongue licks, and the teeth will become longer.
Conclusion: Dentists suggest that ordinary people should have their teeth cleaned every six months.
You know how important white teeth are to you!
