Is spending money to clean teeth worth it after all?
Many people say, “I brush my teeth every day and my teeth are clean enough. Why should I pay to have them cleaned?”
Kids, teeth are not as clean as you think, and tooth cleaning is not as unnecessary as you think. Today, I will talk about the question of “tooth cleaning is not worth it”.
Why do you need a tooth cleaning?
First, a question: Why do we brush our teeth?
To freshen your breath?
Get rid of food?
All right.
But none of these are primary.
In fact, the main function of our brushing is to remove and interfere with the formation of dental plaque.
This plaque is the cause of “cavities, stones, gingivitis, and periodontitis.”
What is dental plaque?
Plaque is the microbiota that adheres to the surface of teeth and other soft tissues in the mouth.
It’s formed by leftover food in the mouth reacting with bacteria, and it’s invisible to the naked eye.
In addition, plaque “adheres” to the surface of the tooth, so it cannot 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.
So, how to remove this tooth stone?
Which brings us back to our topic today, “cleaning your teeth.”
What are the benefits of cleaning teeth?
1, cleaning – remove dental stones, dental plaque upgrade into dental stones, it is more difficult to tangle, and dental stones like to grow in the gingival and tooth junction place.
This place is the dead Angle where we brush our teeth (brushing is very hard to shake the position of O) if these tooth stones are not removed in time, like accumulation on the tooth surface for a long time, it will stimulate the gum.
Gingival swelling and pain, bleeding and other conditions.
If the development is serious, it will affect the periodontal tissue, and finally lead to alveolar bone resorption, causing tooth loosening.
It can be simply summarized as: plaque – dental stones – gingivitis – periodontitis – loose or lost teeth.
You can’t even brush your teeth!!
What to do?
Only use the killer app, which is “teeth cleaning” “teeth cleaning”.
It’s so important that it should be repeated for three times.
