What to do if you have tooth decay, and what should you do if you have tooth decay?

Regarding the problem of tooth decay, Wanzhong dental dentists remind you that tooth decay is a bacterial disease, if not treated, bacteria will continue to erode the tooth until it rots, so the sooner the tooth decay is found, the better, the difficulty of repair is small, the cost is less, if it is dragged to the tooth nerve inflammation, then you have to do a root canal, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty and also increases the cost.

1. After brushing your teeth with fluoride toothpaste, rinse your mouth with foam for two or three minutes, let the foam flow between your lips and teeth, and then spit it out. At this time, the fluoride ions are dissolved in the foam and are easily absorbed by the teeth, especially in the area of microscopic cavities. Do not swallow.

With this method, my mouth used to be full of plaque, but now it is gone, and it can strengthen my fragile teeth.

2. Brush your teeth, use the horizontal brushing method for the chewing surface, and pull the sawing action back and forth. For the inner and outer sides of the teeth (i.e., the tongue and buccal surfaces), use the vertical brush method, when brushing the teeth, first place the bristles of the toothbrush lightly at the junction between the gums and the teeth, and then brush the bristles from the gums down between the teeth through the up and down movement of the wrist like a comb, and repeat several times in the same part; When brushing your lower teeth, you can brush your teeth in the same way from the bottom up, so that you can remove food debris and plaque from between your teeth.

3. Use a fluoride mouthwash every 3 days, the mouthwash can penetrate deep between the teeth that is difficult to reach with toothpaste to remove tartar and plaque. No need to multi-use.

4. Brush your teeth after meals. If you can't do that, rinse your mouth with warm water after a meal, and don't just rinse it and spit it out, but rinse it vigorously in your mouth 100 times to make it effective. Rinse your mouth after snacking as well.

5. Fluoride toothpaste can be used as a famous brand, such as China, Colgate, and Crest. The texture is frozen. Pay attention to the fluoride content, the national standard stipulates:

If the total fluoride amount is greater than or equal to the total weight of toothpaste, and less than or equal to; Soluble fluorine or free fluorine must be greater than or equal to. Generally, you can use it, there are a lot of very serious plaque use, brush for a month, the plaque will disappear obviously, insist on 3 months, the plaque will be invisible. Don't use whitening toothpaste, it will make your teeth brittle!

6. Experience in the use of toothpaste: I used to use Chinese, two-sided needle, black, Colgate, but now I only use Crest. In the past, there were still a little black cavities on the teeth, but after using Crest, there were no cavities at all.

7. Plaque, very small cavities, and very shallow cavities can be completely solved with fluoride toothpaste, and there is no need to fill them!

Tooth decay is found in time and must go to the dental hospital to fill the tooth, it is not good for itself, the more it drags down, the cavity will only get bigger and bigger, not only often plugging the tooth but also causing pain, if the cavity to the nerve then hi need to kill the nerve set crown.

Hurry up and go to the filling, after the filling, it will be fine, and the cost is only 100-300. If the cavities worsen and you need to kill the nerves, the cost will be more than ten times that of the current one.

It mainly depends on the degree of your tooth decay, if there is a hole, it needs to be filled in time.

If the cavities on the tooth surface are not filled immediately, the cavities will continue to expand deep into the dentin, causing the pulp tissue to become inflamed due to bacterial infection. At this time, hot and cold foods and sweets will cause significant and persistent tooth soreness and eventually pulp necrosis.

Therefore, before the bacteria enter the deep dentin and cause necrosis of the pulp tissue, the decayed tooth dentin in the cavity should be removed and the cavity should be filled with compound material. Filled teeth should also be kept hygienic and checked regularly to reduce the recurrence of tooth decay.
