"Toothache is not a disease, but a terrible pain" has always been a popular saying, which is actually unscientific, because toothache is a symptom of oral diseases, especially in the case of tooth decay, which will really make you unable to eat, sleep, feel uncomfortable and your family feel distressed. So, what if there is really tooth decay? First of all, let's learn what tooth decay is. Tooth decay, sometimes called worm tooth, is scientifically called dental caries. The main reason is dental plaque. Dental plaque is an almost colorless film on the surface of teeth, which contains bacteria that cause dental caries. After each meal, these bacteria in dental plaque will react with sugar or starch in food to produce acidic substances that corrode teeth. Over time, the tooth enamel will be destroyed, forming a fragile cavity. If it continues to deteriorate, it will form a cavity, that is, tooth decay. Therefore, tooth decay develops from small tooth decay, not real moths or other insects, but the result of teeth being gradually corroded. In severe cases, tooth decay will lead to tooth necrosis and tooth loss. For the cavities that have formed, you must go to the dentist immediately, so that the dentist can take timely measures to fill the cavities and prevent them from getting worse. Never have the idea of waiting, forget it. The view that "toothache is not a disease" is not only wrong, but also will delay the treatment, leading to the deterioration of tooth decay, tooth necrosis and possibly more tooth decay. If the pain is unbearable, sometimes even the dentist can't help you. It's really a small hole that doesn't mend, and a big hole suffers. At the same time, experts pointed out that after suffering from tooth decay, it is even more necessary to use high-quality fluoride toothpaste. The so-called "it's not too late to mend." Because high-quality fluoride toothpaste, such as Crest's tooth decay prevention paste prepared by Flutai, on the one hand, fluoride ions can enter the tooth surface to form a protective layer, which helps to resist the erosion of acidic substances, thus helping to prevent the deterioration of tooth decay; On the other hand, this fluoride ion can act on other teeth, which can promote tooth remineralization, repair these early small dental caries and avoid the further development and formation of dental caries for some potential dental caries risks, that is, small dental caries. The results of clinical research also show that compared with people who use fluoride-free toothpaste, the small cavities of fluoride-containing toothpaste users can be obviously repaired. Here, I call on everyone to pay attention to the problem of tooth decay, never take an indifferent attitude, actively seek the help of dentists, insist on using high-quality fluoride toothpaste, get rid of the wrong idea that toothache is not a disease, and ensure the health of teeth, otherwise you will suffer in the end. For the cavities that have formed, you must go to the dentist immediately, so that the dentist can take timely measures to fill the cavities and prevent them from getting worse.

When you have a toothache, you can cut a small piece of ginger and bite it on the sore spot. It can be reused if necessary. It doesn't hurt to put it in your mouth when you sleep. 2. Apply honey to the toothache, and it will be fine in a few minutes, and it will also make your mouth fragrant. 3. Pick a little Yunnan Baiyao with a toothpick and add a drop of boiling water to make it paste, and then dip Yunnan Baiyao paste into the toothache with a toothpick, which will usually stop the pain after 3 to 5 minutes. 4. Aloe in the mouth: cut the aloe into small pieces, peel it, put the pulp containing viscous liquid on the painful part, and relieve itself after 2 ~ 2 hours. 5. Ice compress: Just like treating bruises, ice compress on the cheeks can relieve the pain when you have a toothache. Apply 15 minutes each time, at least 3 ~ 4 times a day. 6. Liushen Pill 1 2 pills, crushed and placed on the gum of the affected tooth for 5 to 10 minutes, once a day, usually no more than 3 times. /gin hoo _ dwe/dwe/ASK/ASK _ ing . aspx？ Di_id=24874 Tooth decay just started: The initial tooth decay occurred in the enamel of the teeth, and there was no pain. The surface of the teeth was usually intact, and there were no holes visible to the naked eye. Tooth decay in this area adjacent to the teeth is more difficult to find. Sometimes it takes x-rays to be sure. Treatment: Dentists can apply high-concentration fluoride to areas with initial tooth decay, so that the reduced initial tooth decay will spread to ivory: teeth have cavities, and teeth will feel pain when eating. Treatment: the decayed tooth is not big, and the tooth is filled when it is still strong. If the decayed area becomes extensive and the teeth are already fragile, insert an artificial crown. Tooth decay spreads to the pulp: there are obvious cavities in the teeth, causing severe pain. Dental pulp may be infected by bacteria and die, and bacteria may even spread from dental pulp through root to nearby periodontal tissue, causing inflammation or abscess. Treatment: Root canal therapy (root), and artificial crown will be installed if necessary. If the dentist thinks that endodontic treatment is not suitable, the tooth will be extracted. Usually, the treatment of "tooth decay" is that the dentist first uses a laser to find out the decayed part inside the tooth. Then drill a hole and a passage on the decayed tooth with a drill. Then clean the rotten part by scraping, and finally fill the cavity of the tooth with filler. This is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also brings great pain to patients. Ozone therapy is much better now. Doctors spray ozone gas directly on dental caries, which can directly kill most of the bacteria that cause dental caries and help tooth regeneration. For children, this new method can also prevent tooth decay. According to experts, this ozone method can kill 99% harmful microbial tissues on decayed teeth in just a few seconds. The suction cap and recovery device assembled on the instrument can also ensure that no gas leaks into the patient's mouth during treatment. After ozone treatment, the cavities have been cleaned up. Patients can choose whether to add fillers or not, which will not have much impact. This ozone therapy is not only effective, but also very fast. In the past, it took at least half an hour to drill a tooth and fill it, while ozone treatment took less than one minute to spray a tooth. Queen's University Belfast in Northern Ireland has studied this new method. Now, many dentists have begun to use this highly effective and painless ozone therapy. "Tooth decay" is called dental caries in medicine. It is formed by Streptococcus mutans in dental plaque attached to the surface of teeth fermenting sugar and starch in food to produce acid, which gradually demineralizes teeth. Therefore, to prevent dental caries, we must start with removing dental plaque, reducing sugar intake and improving the acid resistance of teeth. 1. Brush your teeth correctly: this is an effective way to remove dental plaque. First, buy a children's health toothbrush with small brush head, soft bristles, blunt ends and elasticity, and then buy monofluoro toothpaste containing sodium fluoride or difluoro toothpaste containing sodium monofluorophosphate. Fluoride in toothpaste can strengthen tooth surface structure, promote mineralization, improve acid resistance and inhibit dental plaque. The dosage of children is about the size of peas at a time, which can be increased appropriately with age. Swallowing should be avoided when brushing teeth. When children learn to brush their teeth for the first time, parents should demonstrate and patiently teach their children how to brush their teeth correctly. The key points of correct brushing are: the bristles are about 45 degrees from the tooth surface and brush vertically along the teeth. The upper teeth are down, the lower teeth are up, and the teeth are brushed back and forth before and after occlusion. Instead of a saw-saw horizontal brush, it will damage teeth and gums. Brush your teeth for 3 minutes each time, once in the morning and once in the evening, and persevere. 2, reasonable diet: sweets are children's favorite food, which contains a lot of sugar and starch such as candy, chocolate, biscuits, cakes and so on. In particular, sticky sweets are easy to adhere to the surface of teeth, which provides sufficient nutrition for cariogenic bacteria in dental plaque, and the organic acids produced after metabolism are very cariogenic. Therefore, children should be advised to eat less sweets, especially before going to bed, and brush their teeth after eating before going to bed. In addition, don't be partial eclipse in your daily diet. Dietary ingredients should include whole grains, beans and bean products, milk and dairy products, fish, eggs, poultry, vegetables and fruits. This is good for children's growth and health. 3, regular inspection: because there are no symptoms in the early stage of dental caries, it is not easy to be detected. Parents are anxious to take their children to the hospital until the symptoms of pain appear. At this time, they often miss a good opportunity for treatment. Therefore, doctors recommend that children have their first checkup when they are one year old, and then have regular checkups every six months. Dental caries should be treated in time. Don't neglect your child's dental health because of busy work. May your child have clean and healthy teeth.
