Bian Xiao's tooth brother told me that everyone should have a small goal, that is, 80 or 20, that is, when he is 80 years old, he can still have more than 20 teeth before he can continue to eat ~!
Keep an eye on this schedule of dental care, don't let your teeth hurt like hell, eat and stuff your teeth ~
1, before pregnancy: check whether the teeth are painful or swollen.
During pregnancy, due to the sharp increase of estrogen and progesterone levels in the body, the minor problems of the original teeth will be aggravated, and gum bleeding, toothache and inflammation of wisdom teeth may occur. Because pregnant women's physical condition is not suitable for dealing with oral problems, it is best to make these preparations before pregnancy:
Do a comprehensive oral examination.
Wash your teeth once to ensure periodontal health.
Fill decayed teeth and pull out crooked wisdom teeth.
2, pregnancy: balanced nutrition, careful medication.
When the baby is still in the belly, the mouth and teeth have already begun to develop, so protecting teeth must start from the pregnant mother!
Especially in the early pregnancy, the baby is easily influenced by genes and the outside world, which may cause fetal congenital malformation (such as cleft lip and palate).
At this time, we should pay attention to: ensure nutrition and not lack calcium, phosphorus and vitamins.
Cautious medication: Do not misuse tetracycline antibiotics, and take the medicine under the guidance of a doctor.
3. Early childhood: The most important thing is to protect the six-year-old teeth.
Most parents think that deciduous teeth will change, and they can be protected when they grow permanent teeth. So today's children are all decayed. No wonder they have bad teeth when they grow up.
Children's tooth protection must pay attention to:
Insist on brushing your teeth: your baby should brush his teeth when he grows his first deciduous tooth. You can help your parents brush their teeth when you are too young. You can learn to brush your teeth by yourself after you are 2 years old.
Eat less sugar, and it is best to coat fluoride on deciduous teeth to prevent tooth decay.
Protecting six-year-old teeth: Children will sprout their first permanent molars when they are about six years old, that is, "six-year-old teeth". Because of its hidden location, it is often overlooked. Many babies around us (including those who claim to be babies) were killed by this tooth at the earliest. The most cost-effective and convenient solution is to seal the pit and fissure, otherwise it will be too late to regret when you have decayed teeth and are often cursed by irregular teeth.
Don't forget the oral exam during the physical examination.
4, teenagers: uneven teeth, wearing braces.
The key point of adolescent dental care is to do a good job of protection.
Regular oral examination.
Early treatment of tooth decay.
Brush your teeth every morning and evening, rinse your mouth after meals and floss your teeth.
Remove crooked wisdom teeth in time.
Avoid too fine food and eat more crude fiber to fully stimulate alveolar bone and promote jaw development.
If there is malocclusion (uneven teeth), it needs to be corrected as soon as possible.
Early intervention (3-5 years old) is needed if there are skeletal problems that affect the growth and development and malocclusion that hinder the normal function of maxillofacial region, such as covering the sky and biting the lips.
If it is a malocclusion without skeletal problems, the best correction age is about 1 1~ 12 years old.
5. Young and middle-aged: Periodontal disease is the biggest hidden danger.
70% of adults in China suffer from oral diseases such as periodontitis. Periodontal disease is the chief culprit leading to loose teeth.
Therefore, adult dental care should do:
Treat the disease early, and prevent it early if there is no disease.
65438+ Wash teeth regularly 0~2 times a year.
6, the elderly: missing teeth should be set, bad teeth should be filled.
Two major problems faced by the teeth of the elderly:
1, gingival atrophy, root exposure, dental plaque is easy to accumulate at the root to form root caries.
2. Dentin hypersensitivity caused by severe wear.
Preventive measures:
The gap between the teeth of the elderly is wide, so it is best to use gap brush, dental floss and tooth washer to clean the mouth.
It is best to use a soft and elastic toothbrush.
When eating, chew alternately on both sides to avoid serious wear on one side and waste of tissue on the other.
If you are an elderly person who has suffered from root caries and pulpitis, you can save your teeth by filling teeth and root canal treatment instead of pulling them out directly.
