I have a lot of calculus on the inside of my lower teeth, what is the cause of calculus?

Hello! There are several theories about the reasons for its formation:

1. Due to the decrease in the concentration of carbon dioxide in saliva, inorganic salts are precipitated on the surface of teeth.

2. Phosphate enzymes from degenerate cells cause organic phosphorus to hydrolyze and produce phosphorus that precipitates on the tooth surface.

3. The pH value of saliva is increased by bacteria and alkaline, resulting in the decomposition of proteins in saliva, releasing calcium salts, and precipitating on the surface of teeth.

Fourth, it is related to the concentration of saliva, the greater the concentration, the easier it is to precipitate.

** of dental calculus

1. Teeth cleaning: Everyone is familiar with ultrasonic teeth cleaning, which is aimed at removing dental calculus. Because dental calculus is more likely to cause the accumulation of dental bacteria, resulting in gingivitis, bleeding gums, and periodontal disease.

Therefore, the removal of dental calculus is a medical act. Of course, at the same time, the calculus on the neck of the tooth and the adjacent surface will be removed, and the teeth will also have the performance of whitening. The disadvantages of teeth cleaning are that it is more painful, there will be more blood, and the surface of the teeth is rougher after cleaning, and the recurrence of tartar will come faster.

Finally, there is the possibility of contracting diseases.

2. Tooth ** dissolves tartar **: This product is a new product refined by natural plants, without any chemical additives, no peculiar smell, no need to enter the stomach and intestines to absorb, only need to be brushed and rinsed after the mouth can be effective, simple to use, high safety, the principle is through the essence extracted from the plant, and the chemical derivatives of tartar react, so as to achieve the effect of deep gum dissolution tartar, tartar falls off to restore the original luster of the tooth surface, Brushing can remove dissolved subgingival tartar, and a protective film can be added to the surface of the tooth to prevent it from easily reattaching.

3. Bleaching: This method generally uses chemical drugs to bleach the surface of the teeth, rather than the real **, many people who are beautified will take this way, in fact, it is not advisable, one is not to achieve the first effect, and the other is serious damage to the teeth themselves.

Hello, dental calculus is caused by insufficient oral cleanliness, you need to go to a regular dental hospital for teeth cleaning to effectively remove it, and you also need to pay more attention to oral hygiene, I wish you health.

Calculus is calcified plaque that plays an important role in the development of periodontal disease.

In layman's terms, "dental calculus is tartar", which is a general term for mineralized plaque and other deposits that adhere to the tooth surface. To understand the formation process of dental calculus, we must first start with bacteria.

The oral cavity is a complex ecological environment. Bacteria from outside air, water and food continue to enter the mouth, some of which stay in the mouth and some of which are eliminated by swallowing. The temperature, humidity and complex structure of the oral cavity provide the right conditions for bacteria to grow and multiply.

As a result, a wide variety of microorganisms can be cultivated in the oral cavity.

Bacteria that enter the mouth must first settle in the mouth in order to become a member of the oral microflora. The glycoproteins in saliva form a thin film between 1 and 15 microns thick on the tooth surface (called an acquired membrane), which allows bacteria to attach. Once the membrane is formed, bacteria can be deposited within a few minutes.

This bacterial deposit, called plaque, provides an essential mineralized core for the formation of dental calculus, which is the inorganic salt component of saliva. The amount of mineral salts such as calcium and phosphorus contained in saliva is supersaturated, and when saliva flows out of the catheter orifice and into the mouth, the carbon dioxide tension contained in saliva is reduced by half. Carbon monoxide escapes from the saliva and the pH of the saliva rises, and calcium and phosphorus ions are precipitated from the supersaturated state and deposited around the core.

At the same time as the mineral salts are deposited, the bacteria that inhabit the core are gradually mineralized, and over time, hardened calculus is formed.

The formation of dental calculus is affected by many factors, such as the amount and composition of saliva, diet and oral hygiene habits. The amount of formation varies from part to part of the oral cavity, with deposition and replacement on the tooth surface opposite the salivary duct orifice, the lingual surface of the lower anterior teeth, and the buccal surface of the upper molars.

Calculus is formed due to the accumulation of epithelial cells, soft scale, pigment, calcium and phosphorus deposits on the tooth surface for a long time and gradual calcification, which is as hard as a stone. According to the location of the tooth where the calculus is located, it is divided into supragingival calculus and subgingival calculus. Once dental calculus appears, it is recommended to go to the stomatology department of the hospital in time to avoid gingivitis, periodontal disease, etc.

Hippo dentist, talk about those problems of teeth Today Hippo Jun wants to discuss with you about dental calculus, and has been talking about dental calculus, so what is dental calculus? Is it just something hard, yellow, or black on your teeth?

In fact, dental calculus is formed by 75% calcium phosphate + 10% 25% water + organic matter + manganese phosphate + calcium mineral acid + trace amounts of potassium, sodium and iron, forming a yellow, brown or black appearance on the surface of the teeth.

So how is dental calculus formed?

It is mainly due to the fact that human saliva is rich in minerals, which reacts with acidic secretions in the mouth. When this substance is first formed, it is extremely small and difficult to see with the naked eye, but under the long-term deep acidic chemical reaction, dental calculus gradually forms.

Dental calculus cannot be solved by brushing, and the best way is to go to a regular dental medical institution to have your teeth cleaned.

So is dental calculus really a treasure?

Mr. Hippo can tell you responsibly that it is not a treasure! It's a big evil! Let's let Hippopotamus talk to you about its harms!

1.Affect communication.

When you communicate, chat, or talk to someone, there is an unclean object between your teeth, which will inevitably produce a serious breath, and you may not be able to smell it, but most people can't stand your own body odor.

2.It is easy to cause oral problems.

The production of dental calculus provides a breeding ground for bacteria to grow, and eventually problems such as gum inflammation and, more dangerously, it can also be transmitted to your family.

3.Direct damage to your teeth.

Dental calculus can not only compress your gums and block the normal flow of blood in your mouth, but also cause gum inflammation and even swelling and pain. Moreover, in the long run, calculus will accumulate more and more, forming a vicious circle, destroying the tooth tissue little by little, and you may end up with all the teeth being extracted one by one, until one day you have no one left.

It is best for ordinary people to clean their teeth once every six months.

Brushing or rinsing your mouth can't clean your teeth thoroughly, so you can only seek help from a dentist. According to Dr. Lee, scaling is currently a very effective way to clean teeth thoroughly, and it is also a routine.

In the West, teeth cleaning is a very common thing, is "another way to brush teeth", through regular tooth cleaning, not only can completely remove calculus, pigmentation and their own uncleanable parts, such as deep between the teeth of the mouth, so that the periodontal tissue remains healthy, but also cleaning teeth is also an effective means of bleeding gums. It is easy to find small and imperceptible dental diseases when cleaning teeth, such as relatively hidden caries, so as to achieve the purpose of early detection and early detection. At present, there are two kinds of regular scaling, one is ordinary ultrasonic scaling, which uses ultrasonic vibration to break up plaque, calculus, and pigment on the surface of the teeth, and at the same time rinses off the debris with an atomized stream of water, so the general scaling will not cause damage to the teeth; Another type of sandblasting is to use high-pressure sandblasting to thoroughly clean teeth for people who have a lot of pigment on the surface of their teeth and those who smoke regularly.

The interval between teeth cleaning should not be too short or too long, too frequent will damage the teeth. Dr. Li said that people who are prone to dental calculus, cigarette stains, and tea stains generally have three major misunderstandings about tooth cleaning.

1.Eating gum can clean your teeth. In fact, chewing gum can only temporarily change the tone of the mouth, and its cleansing effect is not very large, and chewing gum does not solve plaque. Therefore, teeth cleaning should still be based on brushing.

2.As long as you brush your teeth, your teeth will be clean. Brushing teeth can naturally make teeth cleaner, but there are many places in the mouth that cannot be reached by brushing your teeth, and some people do not brush their teeth scientifically enough, which is very likely to form dental calculus.

There is a simple and effective way to check if your teeth are clean, licking your teeth with your tongue before brushing your teeth should be rough and uneven, and licking your teeth with your tongue after brushing your teeth should be smooth.

3.Dental strips can replace cold light whitening. Dental strips can make teeth whiter, but because dental strips are simply used with drugs, their whitening effect is not outstanding.

If you want to make the whitening effect of your teeth more prominent, it is best to go to a regular hospital to receive cold light whitening.

Teeth should be cleaned once every 3 to 6 months, and it is best for ordinary people to clean their teeth once every six months.

It's going to have tartar. Dentists recommend cleaning your teeth at least once a year, usually once every six months. In this way, the tartar can be cleaned away.

As soon as you finish cleaning, you will feel that the gap between your teeth has widened, but it is not. Because the calculus originally accumulated between the teeth, after the teeth are cleaned and removed, it is natural to feel that the gap between the teeth is wider, which is the result of calculus removal.

Hello, the most effective way is to usually rinse your mouth well, everyone is usually eating food, especially the lower front teeth, because the toothbrush can not be put in, so it is easy to store food residues, after a long time calcification, it will form dental calculus, drinking strong tea can also cause tea stains, preventive is to regularly go to the professional dental clinic every year to clean the teeth, so that you can also protect the teeth from infection.
