That is to say, young people are most susceptible to dental inflammation, which usually manifests as bleeding gums, swelling and pain, and heavy breath. Adolescence is prone to gingivitis. After puberty, gingival inflammation and hyperplasia will gradually reduce by itself, but gingival inflammation can only disappear completely after the plaque and calculus are completely removed. There are three reasons for this:
First, the accumulation of dental plaque is the basis of adolescent gingivitis. In this age group, due to the replacement of deciduous and permanent teeth, uneven arrangement of teeth, mouth breathing and wearing appliances, etc., the teeth are not easy to clean, and it is easy to cause plaque retention, causing gingivitis, and calculus is generally less.
Second, changes in endocrine levels are important contributing factors to the occurrence of the disease. Sex hormones (most importantly estrogen and testosterone) in human blood circulation can act on gingival tissue, making it more responsive to bacterial stimulation, that is to say, under the action of sex hormones, a small amount of bacterial stimulation may lead to more Severe gum inflammation.
Finally, good oral hygiene habits, such as brushing, flossing, etc., are not formed, and oral hygiene is generally poor. The fundamental measures to prevent gingivitis are to develop good oral hygiene habits, master the correct brushing method, and reduce the accumulation of plaque on the tooth surface. Studies have shown that the incidence of adolescent gingivitis decreases with age, and the average number of gingival episodes per child is related to the duration of inflammation and oral hygiene at the time of gingival inflammation; adolescent gingivitis, although associated with changes in hormone levels, is more frequent. The premise is that poor oral hygiene results in the accumulation of bacteria on the surface of the teeth. Why is adolescence prone to gingivitis? The above content is the introduction of experts in this regard. It is relatively easy to treat gingivitis in the early stage, but for severe treatment, not only the cost is relatively high, but the pain and time spent by the patient will increase a lot.
