Chinese medicine for tooth regeneration

Dental protection is very necessary. In daily life, some people do not pay attention to cleaning their teeth, and food residues will remain in the teeth for a long time. Over time, it will cause tooth decay, and in severe cases, it will cause tooth loss. If teeth fall out, it will cause great harm to people's health, so people hope that teeth can regenerate, and many people use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate their health. So, can Traditional Chinese Medicine regulate tooth regeneration?

Is it true that teeth cannot regrow?

Before I start the serious introduction, I would like to share a very interesting passage about tooth regeneration, "Teeth = shame, shyness, which means: it is okay to be naked when you are a child, but when you grow up, you can no longer be naked, you are embarrassed to go out and see people, so you don't grow teeth."

Back to the serious topic, the ideal of tooth regeneration is indeed beautiful, but the reality seems very bleak. In the process of biological evolution, humans have only formed one set of deciduous tooth germs and one set of permanent tooth germs, and only replace teeth once in a lifetime, so it is called double dentition, which means that the teeth have roots and can only grow twice.

Tips for protecting teeth

Ingredients: Appropriate amounts of wild chrysanthemum, dandelion, patchouli, mint leaves, eucommia, alum, and green salt.

Principle of tooth powder: Wild chrysanthemum, dandelion, patchouli and mint leaves have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, cooling and purging fire; Eucommia ulmoides has the effect of strengthening muscles and bones; alum has the effect of detoxifying and killing insects; adding green salt can stabilize teeth and improve the effect of loose teeth.

Preparation method: Grind all the Chinese herbs into powder and mix well.

How to use: When brushing your teeth, dip the dry toothbrush directly into the tooth powder, then gently apply the tooth powder to the surface of the teeth, try to let the tooth powder penetrate into the gaps between the teeth, and it is best to make the gaps between the teeth feel slightly filled. After applying the tooth powder to all teeth, wait for 1 to 3 minutes to ensure that the tooth powder has sufficient time to maintain the teeth, then rinse your mouth and gently brush off the tooth powder with a toothbrush.

How to protect teeth in daily life

Strong tea is better than mouthwash - strengthen teeth's acid resistance

Mouthwash can remove oral bacteria and cleanse your breath. But the latest research in Japan has found that strong tea is better than mouthwash! The catechol in tea can prevent and treat tooth decay, and fluoride ions can convert hydroxyapatite in tooth enamel into fluoroapatite, improving the structure of tooth enamel and greatly enhancing the acid resistance of teeth! Japanese medical experts have also found that tannic acid in tea is an active ingredient that can improve the oral environment and strongly counteract possible carcinogens in the mouth.

Wait a while after meals before brushing your teeth to avoid tooth sensitivity

Brushing your teeth immediately after a meal can indeed remove food residues and tartar in time, but some oral medicine experts say that brushing your teeth immediately after a meal will increase the incidence of tooth sensitivity by 15%! Because there is a layer of enamel on the surface of the teeth, the enamel on the teeth will become soft just after eating, especially after eating acidic foods such as fruits and dairy products. At this time, brushing your teeth will make the enamel gradually thinner. Over time, the teeth will become sore and swollen.

Calcium supplementation is more important than eating less sugar - strong teeth come from eating

The most important way to protect your teeth is to supplement calcium! More than 90% of the components of strong tooth enamel are calcium, which can protect teeth from corrosion. The slogan of the American Dental Foundation is: Calcium supplementation is more important than eating less sugar! Although there are more and more toothpastes with the words "calcium added" on the market, the best way to supplement calcium is still diet. Dairy products are the best calcium foods. Since the body's ability to absorb calcium is strongest at night, it is best to eat them at night.

Avoid eating cold food during menstruation to keep your teeth white and lips not red - prevent oral ulcers during menstruation

Are you still feeling proud of not having menstrual cramps every month? Put away your joy first and think carefully about whether you have oral ulcers during your menstrual period? Chinese medicine experts have found that more than 30% of dental diseases are related to women's neglect of menstrual care. During menstruation, the level of Qi and blood is low. If you eat a lot of cold drinks at this time, your immunity will be greatly reduced, resulting in temporary anemia-type oral ulcers, such as slightly red and swollen lips and swollen gums. Although the ulcer will automatically disappear after menstruation, but if it continues for a long time, gingivitis will naturally come to you!

Floss your mouth regularly – up to 3 times a week

American dental experts say that even if you brush your teeth for 5 minutes each time, 30%-40% of your teeth will still not be completely cleaned, especially for people with irregular teeth arrangement. The best tooth protection tool recommended by the International Oral Health Organization is dental floss, which can remove dental plaque from "buried places" and reduce the incidence of tooth decay. But don’t floss all the time just because you think it’s useful. Three times a week is the maximum you can do. Otherwise, the gaps between your teeth may get so big that you can’t even smile!
