What causes oral polyps?

Generally speaking, polyps and tumors are difficult to distinguish from their appearance. Although tumors may feel hard, difficult to move, and erosive, it is still difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them and requires biopsy for identification. The oral cavity is often exposed to chemical or physical stimulation, such as eating spicy or hot foods, or carcinogens such as tobacco, alcohol, and betel nuts that stimulate the mucosa, as well as friction in the oral cavity caused by uneven teeth, which may be the cause of polyps.

1. Eat slowly

If you eat too fast and accidentally bite the cheek mucosa, it usually happens on the cheek mucosa between the upper and lower teeth. When the bite wound is more serious, it is usually difficult for the epithelium to heal, and it can only heal slowly with granulation tissue, resulting in a protruding mucosal surface. The color is redder than the normal cheek mucosa and it is tougher. You should chew your meals slowly and not eat too fast, otherwise it is easy to bite the mucosa. Do not eat hard food and drink enough water. 2. Eat regularly

In addition to the oral cavity, there is also the possibility of polyps in other parts of the body. For example, there is a possibility of polyps growing in our digestive tract and stomach. In order to avoid polyps, we must pay attention to our hygiene habits, develop a good eating habit, and improve our immunity.

3. Rinse your mouth by gargling with ribs

Do the closed-mouth puffing and gargling action once or twice a day, and rotate the tongue left and right. This can increase saliva secretion, rinse and stimulate the tooth surface, tooth gaps and oral mucosa to a certain extent, make the mouth self-cleaning, and protect the health of teeth.

4. Keep your mouth clean

You should brush your teeth with warm water every morning and evening. Brushing your teeth before going to bed is more important than brushing your teeth in the morning. In addition, you should rinse your mouth with clean water after three meals a day, and use the force of the water to remove food debris from between your teeth as much as possible. If it is embedded very tightly, you can also use a toothpick to remove it. You should go to the hospital regularly to remove tartar on the tooth surface to prevent the occurrence of periodontitis.
