At present, more and more people are aware of the importance of “cleaning” for dental health. However, in clinical practice, many people will ask the doctor whether there will be “tooth damage”, “tooth sensitivity”, “gum bleeding” and “widening of the gap between the teeth” after cleaning.
However, many people neglect to take care of their teeth after cleaning.
Dental cleaning can make teeth healthier, but scientific care can make the effect of dental cleaning more stable.
Below, let’s take a look at what to pay attention to after cleaning your teeth.
In addition, some patients will also have dental sensitivity after cleaning. This is mainly before cleaning, the exposed root is surrounded by calculus, and the cold and hot stimulation is cut off.
To reduce the pain, avoid contact with too cold or too hot food in the short term after cleaning, so that the teeth can adapt to the process, and the symptoms will be alleviated.
It is recommended that you avoid eating dark foods such as chocolate, ketchup and soy sauce, dark drinks such as tea, coffee and cola, and avoid smoking for one to two weeks after your teeth are washed.
The pain after cleaning can be used desensitization toothpaste healthy teeth after cleaning will not appear the feeling of pain, but some people on the surface of the tooth attached to calculus, calculus on the surface of the tooth enamel destruction, once the teeth to remove calculus, enamel exposure in the mouth, there will be a painful feeling.
If more calculus is attached to the tooth, the more enamel will be damaged, and the pain will be increased.
General cleaning within two weeks after the feeling of pain will gradually disappear, this time to reduce the stimulation of teeth, eat less overheated, too cold and other food.
This pain is called dentin sensitivity. Desensitizing toothpaste can be used within two weeks after cleaning. If it doesn’t go away in two weeks, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination.
Many people feel that everything is fine after cleaning their teeth. In fact, there is an important link after cleaning — polishing, which can make teeth completely clean.
After cleaning and treatment, the tooth surface is not smooth, and there are often left pigment and small calculus that can not be identified by the naked eye. Under the catalysis of calcium salts in saliva, the calculus will be deposited faster than before. It is necessary to polish the tooth surface with a polishing device to make the teeth bright, so as to delay the pigmentation.
Irregular dental clinics usually just do the preliminary cleaning work, and leave out the polishing of the tooth surface step.
