Old bleeding gums?
You should wash a tooth “Why gum bleeding so long to treat?”
“Hearing people say that cleaning is bad……”
This is probably the most repeated conversation among dentists in the country during their daily house calls.
What am I supposed to do? I’m gonna give them a little talk.
Feel sorry for the dentist for a minute. The next time a patient suspects that cleaning will widen the gap between the teeth and make the teeth sensitive to Balabala’s, just throw this article to him.
How is cleaning a tooth fat thing?
Actually, the technical term for cleaning teeth is “Jie jie”.
It is a professional treatment method for doctors to use special medical instruments to remove the accumulated dental plaque, dental stones and pigment on the surface of teeth.
According to the different tools used, clinical can be divided into manual cleaning and ultrasonic cleaning two kinds.
Manual cleaning is to use a professional manual instrument similar to the “small hook” to “pry” the tooth stone from the tooth surface.
It is mainly used in the following cases: to clean the tooth stone below the gum (the professional term is called “subgingival scraping”);
For specific patients, such as those with unshielded pacemakers and those with specific infectious diseases.
Ultrasonic cleaning is to use high frequency vibration of the working head to remove dental stones, cleaning efficiency is relatively high, currently widely used in clinical.
When cleaning teeth, the ultrasonic cleaning machine will shake the tooth stones and pigments off the teeth, so that the precious teeth will not be worn away, and the tooth tissue will not be damaged.
I brush my teeth every day. Why do I have to clean my teeth?
Doctor, are you trying to rip me off?
We brush our teeth to freshen our breath?
Get rid of food?
However, none of these should be primary.
In fact, the main function of our brushing is to remove and interfere with the formation of dental plaque.
Plaque is formed when bacteria react with leftover food in the mouth and is invisible to the naked eye.
In addition, plaque adheres to the tooth surface, so it can’t be washed away or washed away. It can only be removed mechanically.
However, the enemy is too cunning, even if we try to brush our teeth.
There are still die-hards who thrive in hidden corners.
If you are not careful, the plaque will calcify further and become a dental stone.
And this tooth stone is the main culprit of gingivitis, periodontitis.
Next door Lao Wang said that cleaning will make the gap between teeth bigger!
Become sensitive!
Often heard: “My friend cleaned his teeth and the gap between his teeth came out”.
After washing the teeth, the gap between the teeth becomes larger, that is because it has been suffering from periodontitis of different degrees. The left side of this figure is the normal periodontal situation, the gingival root of the fragile tooth protection is very good, isolated from all kinds of cold and hot stimuli outside;
On the right is a case of periodontitis. Due to chronic pressure of calculus and inflammation of the gums, the gums begin to shrink and the gap between the teeth increases.
Because calculus builds up and inflammation of the gums can cause local swelling of the gums to fill the gap between the teeth, the truth is that dental stones hide your true appearance.
Once the calculus is removed after the tooth cleaning, the swelling of the gums gradually subsides and the gap between the teeth becomes apparent.
That’s why your teeth are so big.
In addition, the calculus blocks the stimulation of the outside world, and the teeth exposed to the external environment after the removal of calculus by dental cleaning will naturally produce sensitive symptoms.
With healthy teeth, this sensitivity usually subsides within a week or two of cleaning.
Next time, ask me if cleaning will make the gap between the teeth bigger. I’ll meet you on the roof.
Can cleaning a tooth make a tooth white?
Because the enamel on the surface of the tooth is transparent, the deep dentin is yellowish.
So normal teeth are yellowish in color, and a dental wash is to clean you up, not to paint your house, so it won’t make your teeth white like the stars, it just restores them to their natural color.
The next time the dentist asks you to clean your teeth, don’t think it is a pit, it is because of love you!
