We all know that washing teeth has a great effect, because there are a lot of dental plaque and calculus in the mouth, which need to be solved by washing teeth. Does washing teeth hurt the teeth? How many times a year is appropriate to wash teeth?
Teeth washing is mainly to prevent oral diseases and maintain oral health. The two major diseases in the oral cavity are periodontal disease, which causes bleeding of the gums, loose teeth and even tooth loss; the other is tooth decay, which causes cavities and toothache. Regular teeth cleaning through cleansing and inspection can carry out early control of these two major diseases.
Some friends worry that washing teeth will cause harm to their teeth. In fact, this is a big misunderstanding. In fact, the hardness of the enamel on the tooth surface is very high, the ultrasonic scaler itself does not harm the teeth, and the correct and standardized operation will not damage the teeth.
How often should I wash my teeth?
This is a problem that everyone is more concerned about. According to international standards, teeth should be washed every six months to one year. In foreign countries, cleaning teeth has become a routine oral health care method, but in China, many people suffer from dental diseases and go to the institution for treatment before completing the first tooth cleaning. The reason is that, apart from not paying enough attention to oral health, it is also related to people’s misunderstandings about cleaning teeth, for example, cleaning teeth can damage teeth and make teeth loose.
Different groups of people are different in terms of teeth cleaning, and there is no uniform standard. People with better oral hygiene generally need to wash their teeth 1-2 times a year. For periodontitis patients during the control period, please consult a periodontist for specific situations.
