How do teenagers protect their teeth?

In life, we always hear many people constantly sighing "It's great to be young", but many young people in life always do not cherish their health, especially the care of their teeth, which can easily lead to tooth pain and other phenomena, which brings a lot of inconvenience to normal life, and we only have one chance to lose a tooth, so we must pay attention to the care of our teeth in daily life. Let's learn about how teenagers can protect their teeth.

How do teenagers protect their teeth?

1. Learn to brush your teeth correctly and use a health toothbrush. Each person should have a toothbrush and a cup to avoid cross infection. Brush your teeth twice a day, morning and evening, and rinse your mouth after every meal.

2. Develop good oral hygiene habits, eat less sweets and drink less carbonated drinks. Excessive intake of sugar or drinking too many carbonated drinks can lead to tooth demineralization, cause tooth decay or cause tooth sensitivity.

3. Intervene in oral diseases at an early stage, such as promoting the use of fluoride toothpaste, sealing the pits and fissures of children's teeth, and focusing on protecting the "six-year molars" (first permanent molars).

4. Once the teeth change color, or feel pain or discomfort when exposed to cold, hot, sour, sweet or other stimuli, early symptoms of tooth decay should be treated promptly. Crooked teeth (such as underbite) should be corrected as soon as possible.

5. Actively prevent and treat dental trauma. Teeth are non-renewable hard tissues and are easily injured during activities. If bleeding gums, broken, loose, or displaced teeth occur after an injury, you should go to the hospital immediately. If the entire tooth falls out, find the tooth as soon as possible, place it in cold milk, saline, or mouthwash, and go to the hospital for replantation as soon as possible.

6. Have regular oral health checks at least once a year. It is recommended to have your teeth cleaned once a year to keep your teeth strong and your periodontal health healthy.

To maintain the body, you need to master the right methods to achieve better results. The above is an introduction to how teenagers can protect their teeth. After understanding it, we know that if we want to protect our teeth, we must ensure that we brush our teeth in the morning and evening, and we must master the correct brushing method. In terms of diet, we must eat less sweets, and do not alternate between eating too cold and too hot foods.
