Tongji Hospital dental cleaning is to go to the center
at present, more and more people realize the importance of "Scaling" to the health of teeth, but in clinical practice, many people will ask doctors whether there will be "tooth damage", "tooth sensitivity", "gingival bleeding" and "tooth gap enlargement" after tooth washing< In fact,
the working head of ultrasonic scaling used in tooth washing has no cutting function. It relies on the high-frequency vibration of ultrasonic to break the calculus, and the doctor should move the working head constantly, without pressure, and just touch the calculus gently, so that the teeth will not be damaged. However, if the operation is not proper, such as pressure or staying on the tooth surface for a long time, small scratches will be left on the tooth surface. Generally, fine rough surface can be seen under the microscope, and this kind of scratches can be made up by polishing
some people feel toothache ring tooth washing, which is mainly caused by root exposure, which is a typical manifestation of periodontal disease. The root is sensitive to cold, hot, sour and sweet stimulation. Therefore, the more severe the periodontitis is, the more obvious the root exposure may be, and the more obvious the pain will be in the treatment< In addition, some patients will have tooth sensitivity after tooth washing, which is mainly because the exposed root is surrounded by dental calculus before scaling, which cuts off the hot and cold stimulation. In order to rece the pain, we can avoid contact with too cold and too hot food in a short time after scaling, so that the teeth have a process of adaptation, and the symptoms will be relieved<
bleeding ring tooth washing: because of the stimulation of plaque
many people will have bleeding ring tooth washing, which is because plaque stimulates gingival inflammation. The more serious the inflammation is, the more obvious the gingival bleeding is. If you usually brush your teeth when bleeding, that gingivitis is not light. Only perfectly healthy gums will not bleed ring scaling. Therefore, after tooth washing, we should insist on brushing teeth carefully and remove the stimulants such as dental plaque, which can rece gingival bleeding< In fact, this is the "reward" of poor oral hygiene habits for many years. The original normal gap of teeth is filled by gingival papilla. However, e to the long-term accumulation of calculus, the gingiva shrinks, the root of teeth is exposed, and the gap between teeth is graally covered by calculus. Once there is a gap in the teeth, cleaning is more difficult, but it is also more important, otherwise it is easy to attach plaque calculus and stimulate the gap to become larger.
1. Disinfection
usually before starting, the doctor will ask the patient to gargle with disinfectant. This process can effectively rece the amount of bacteria in saliva, so as to minimize pollution
2. Scaling
according to the specific situation of the patient, the doctor carries out scaling by hand or ultrasound
the process of tooth washing is usually a little sore. If the gingivitis is serious, there will be bleeding ring tooth washing. In fact, the amount of bleeding is often a reflection of the degree of inflammation. This situation is similar to toothbrushing bleeding, so you can't not brush or wash your teeth because of bleeding
On the contrary, only brushing and washing teeth carefully can eliminate the inflammation, and the bleeding will be reced or disappeared after the inflammation is controlled or eliminated. In addition, e to a large amount of saliva and the presence of water spray, it looks like a lot of bleeding, in fact, generally speaking, the amount of bleeding is not too much Sandblastingthis is to further clean the teeth with special salt and high pressure water, and the effect of removing pigment is more obvious. Patients with less serious pigmentation on the teeth may not need sandblasting, as long as ultrasonic tooth washing once
4. Polishing
polishing after tooth washing is like waxing after car washing. After ultrasonic tooth washing, there will be tiny scratches on the tooth surface which can be seen under the microscope, resulting in slight roughness of the tooth surface, which will easily gather color stains and dental calculus. Polishing can make the teeth brighter and smoother, so as to slow down the adhesion of plaque and pigment and the formation of dental calculus. In addition, polishing can also rece tooth sensitivity after tooth washing
extended data:
tooth washing is a dental operation to remove the calculus, dental plaque and dental stains adhering to the tooth surface and gums and make the teeth clean and smooth. It can prevent the occurrence of periodontal disease by using dental tools such as ultrasonic cleaning machine or manual scraper, However, periodontal disease can not be cured by simple tooth washing. There may be oral discomfort and gingival bleeding after tooth washing, but it will disappear within a few days under normal circumstances
precautions after operation:
it is not suitable to eat cold, hot, sour and sweet food two weeks after tooth washing
after tooth washing, the teeth will be a little sensitive to hot and cold and feel sore. The temporary symptoms and the original bleeding situation will disappear in about a week. If the symptoms of soreness always exist, we can consider the anti sensitive toothpaste on the market, which can be improved after using for about a month
2. Regular hospitals usually price the two processes separately, and private dentists can choose only ultrasonic cleaning instead of sand spraying
3, Doctors generally don't give you too much advice on other dental problems, but private dentists who see that you have cavities will advise you to wash your teeth and fill them up, If your gum problem is serious, you will be advised to take medicine for treatment
