State Drug Administration: Toothpaste is not an artifact for "promoting teeth" and "tonic cave"

The website of the State Drug Administration issued a tip today that toothpaste is not an artifact of "promoting teeth" and "tonic cave". Recently, some so -called toothpaste products sold in the market claim that they have "promoting children's teeth", "repairing tooth holes", "closed teeth", "closed teeth" "Stable teeth loose", even "regenerating teeth" and other effects. It should be pointed out that toothpaste is not a medicine, cannot treat diseases, nor does it have the above -mentioned proclaimed effects. Here are the following points to pay attention to the following points:

The main effect of toothpaste

Toothpaste usually refers to a semi -solid -based preparation that acts on the surface of the human body by brushing to the surface of the human tooth. The friction agent is the main raw material of toothpaste. When brushing the teeth, the friction agent in the toothpaste rubbing the surface of the tooth through the bristles of the toothbrush to achieve the effect of cleaning and removing the stains. With the innovation of toothpaste technology, adding corresponding efficacy to ordinary toothpaste can make toothpaste have corresponding effects, such as adding fluoride can exert a certain effect of anti -caries. However, it should be noted that any toothpaste cannot treat oral diseases.

Toothpaste cannot "promote teeth"

A person's life has only two teeth -deciduous and permanent teeth. Generally, the deciduous teeth start from around June, and the deciduous teeth are all erupted at the age of 2 and a half to 3 years. Become a permanent tooth. No matter what causes, the permanent teeth fall off or damage. No scientific evidence shows that by brushing teeth with toothpaste, it can affect the eruption of deciduous teeth, and it is impossible to regenerate after the permanent teeth fall off.

Toothpaste cannot "make up tooth holes"

Caries are also one of the most common diseases in the oral cavity. At the beginning of the occurrence of dental caries, the surface of the enamel began to get rid of the ore, and the development process of dental caries was irreversible. In other words, after dental destruction (caries) occurred by teeth, it is not renewable. Use fluoride toothpaste to brush your teeth to enhance the ability to resist caries in the teeth, but it cannot reverse the development process of dental caries. Moreover, long -term gingival diseases have caused gum tissue to be destroyed, which in turn causes loose teeth. Professional oral examination, diagnosis and treatment need to be performed. The so -called "repairing tooth holes" by using toothpaste "" closed teeth seams "and" stable tooth loosening "has no scientific basis.

Finally, reminders of consumers: dental caries and other oral diseases should be mainly preventive. It is recommended to maintain good oral hygiene habits and eating habits, regularly conduct oral examinations, and choose toothpaste products rationally. Do not believe that toothpaste can treat false proclaims of oral diseases.
