September 20, 2022 is the 34th "National Love Day". The theme of this year is "Oral health, full body health".

Recently, the chairman of the Commissioner of Oral Digital Materials Technology Management of Guangdong Provincial Hospital Association and Lin Xuefeng, the director of Anbai Oral Diabloid, pointed out in an interview with reporters that parents should pay attention to their teeth health from their children, regular inspections, and timely discover problems in time.

According to reports, the mouth is an important part of the human body and the starting end of the digestive system. The oral cavity has functions such as chewing, swallowing, speech, and sensation, and maintains the normal form of the maxillofacial area. There are two teeth in a person's life, one is deciduous, 20, and the other is permanent teeth, 28 ~ 32. Lin Xuefeng pointed out that "Many factors can interfere with oral health, hinder their exercise of normal functions, and affect human appearance, image and social interaction. In addition, oral diseases can also directly or indirectly affect systemic health and affect the quality of life. Therefore, after the birth of babies is born You should pay attention to oral cleaning. "

After the baby is born, parents should scrub the mouth with soft gauze every day to effectively prevent white Candida infections (commonly known as "goose sores"). After the teeth are sprouting, you can use gauze or soft brush to gently wash your child's mouth and teeth. When multiple teeth are sprouting, parents can use fingers or soft brushes to brush their teeth twice a day for children, and ensure that all tooth surfaces of the upper and lower jaws, especially the parts close to the gingival edge. The two -year -old children will want to brush their teeth by themselves, but parents should understand that the fine exercise ability of this age child has not yet formed, and he cannot really clean his teeth. Therefore, parents should help their children brush their teeth and at least twice a day.

Lin Xuefeng pointed out that, in general, within 6 months after the first teeth of infants and young children, they were taken to the hospital to check their teeth, asking the doctor to help judge the child's teeth, and evaluate the risk of their dental caries. Sexual oral hygiene guidance should be diagnosed and treated early if dental caries and other oral diseases are found. Check your teeth once every six months.

It is worth noting that you should not eat before going to bed after brushing. Lin Xuefeng pointed out that because people have less oral exercise during sleep, low saliva secretion, and poor self -cleaning of the oral cavity. If they eat before going to bed after brushing, they are prone to caries and gingivitis. In addition, children should develop the habit of regular diet. In addition to three meals a day, try to eat less snacks. If you eat snacks, you should also have regularity, you can add snacks between two meals.
