Common Sense to Remember during National Day

For dentists, the national day next to teeth loving day is often the best time to promote oral health. This year’s theme of teeth loving day is “oral health, overall health”. Oral health and overall health are closely related. Let’s take a look at the following small problems about oral and overall health!

What is the standard of oral health?

The standard of oral health is “clean teeth, no cavities, no pain, normal gingival color and no bleeding”. The World Health Organization standard for dental health is “8020”, that is, 80 year old people should have at least 20 functional teeth, which can chew normally without loosening.

What are the benefits of oral health to general health?

  1. Red lips, white teeth and scallops make our personal image greatly increase, and increase our self-confidence in social activities;
  2. Ingest and fully chew food without any obstacle, and promote the digestion and absorption of various nutrients required by the body;
  3. periodontitis is closely related to diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease, and promotes each other.

What effect will be caused to the whole body after oral health problems occur?

  1. Caries and periodontal diseases will destroy the hard tissues and the supporting tissues around the teeth, not only affect the chewing, speech, beauty and other functions, but also cause social communication difficulties and psychological obstacles;
  2. Infection and inflammatory factors in the mouth, especially periodontitis, may aggravate the development of chronic diseases such as cardio cerebrovascular disease and diabetes, endanger the whole body health and affect the quality of life;
  3. The discomfort of oral mucosa will cause anxiety and affect normal rest;
  4. Oral infection of pregnant women is a risk factor for premature delivery and low birth weight.

What diseases of the body can affect or cause oral health problems?

  1. The ability of anti infection of diabetic patients is decreased, often accompanied by periodontitis, tooth extraction wound is difficult to heal, so it is necessary to control blood sugar while treating oral diseases;
  2. Anemia and vitamin deficiency can lead to glossitis and foreign body sensation in mucous membrane;
  3. Blood diseases can lead to redness and bleeding of gingiva and ecchymosis and hematoma of mucous membrane;
  4. Early AIDS patients will have oral lesions, oral candidiasis and other diseases;
  5. Sjogren’s syndrome is manifested in decreased saliva secretion and dry mouth;
  6. The change of sex hormone level can be accompanied by burning sensation of oral mucosa (burning mouth syndrome, often occurs in middle-aged and old women).

If the whole body problem is not solved, the effect of oral treatment is not good!

The presence of systemic diseases not only causes oral health problems, but also affects the treatment of oral diseases if some diseases are not controlled:

  1. Patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease are prone to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents when they have teeth extraction and periodontal treatment when their condition is not controlled;
  2. The effect of periodontal treatment is worse and infection is easier after tooth extraction;
  3. The patients with coagulation dysfunction are easy to have hemostasis difficulty when they have invasive operation.

Tips for protecting oral health

  1. Brush the teeth correctly (the bristles are 45 degrees to the teeth and gums, brush the front and back of the toothbrush gently to all the inside and outside of the teeth, brush up and down the inner side of the front teeth, and finally brush the tongue gently);
  2. Use dental floss, mouthwash and interdental brush;
  3. The oral routine examination and the dental washing treatment every six months to every year.
