Cleaning the mouth
Mouthwash can't replace brushing
"As long as you take a mouthwash, even in the desert, you can make your mouth clean and fresh every day." "Mouthwash fans" said so. There is a small bottle of mouthwash in the carry-on bag. After the meal, go to the bathroom and wash it with a sip. "Shu" for 30 seconds and then spit it out. The breath is fresh and can help prevent phlegm, even brushing your teeth. Saved, mouthwash has become a "portable treasure" for many office white-collar workers.
However, oral experts have warned that the use of mouthwash alone can only remove food debris floating on the surface of the teeth, while some food residues and deposits in hidden parts, such as the teeth, are not easily removed, so do not use mouthwash. Instead of brushing your teeth. Sterilizing effect
But it is not a substitute for brushing
It is understood that the mouthwash in the market is mainly composed of flavor, surfactant, fluoride, barium chloride, alcohol and water. It generally has the functions of cleaning teeth, purifying the breath, removing food residue and tartar, and can be to some extent. Prevent dental caries, periodontitis, and reduce bad breath.
Compared with traditional toothpastes and toothbrushes, oral cleaning products such as mouthwashes are easy to use and time-saving. Therefore, consumers who use mouthwash to clean their mouths are not rare.
In front of the mouthwash counter, the reporter encountered a small week of shopping. She said that she has developed a habit in the past year: every time after a meal, she will rinse her mouth with mouthwash. For a long time, I feel that it is much faster and faster to clean my teeth with mouthwash. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I use mouthwash instead of brushing my teeth. The salesperson said that most of the mouthwashes are young people. Many people think that after cleaning the mouth with mouthwash, the mouth is very clean, the smell is very fresh, and it is convenient, and it is more comfortable than brushing teeth.
Han Huakun, attending physician of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Henan College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that compared with traditional brushing, mouthwash can not completely remove the plaque on the teeth and the food left in some small gaps, and can not fully play the treatment of periodontal disease and prevent dental caries. The effect, and one of the main purposes of brushing is to remove plaque attached to the surface of the tooth. In this process, the most critical is the physical friction of the toothbrush, which is not possible with mouthwash, so the effect of removing plaque is limited.
Mouthwash market similar efficacy gum
At present, domestic mouthwashes are mainly divided into two categories. One type is medicinal, which is used to treat oral inflammation such as gingivitis, periodontitis, and oral ulcers. This type of mouthwash is independently deployed by a professional doctor and is mainly used for outpatients. For example, in patients with oral ulcers, doctors will specially dispense mouthwashes with anesthetic ingredients to temporarily relieve pain when the patient is eating. For patients who have just finished surgery, mouthwash with iodophor disinfectant can be used to sterilize.
The other type is health care. Health-care mouthwash removes food debris and some soft dirt from the mouth and temporarily reduces the amount of bacteria in the mouth. Its main ingredient is a mouth freshener, similar to the efficacy of chewing gum. Generally speaking, mouthwashes sold in shopping malls or supermarkets are such products.
Normal people do not need mouthwash to brush their teeth sooner or later.
According to oral experts, the oral cavity is a micro-ecological environment, and many bacteria have settled and grown in the oral cavity for a long time. Long-term use of bactericidal mouthwash will cause some bacteria to be over-suppressed, resulting in dysregulation of the flora in the mouth, which is not conducive to oral health.
Therefore, normal people with no disease in the mouth do not need to use mouthwash, as long as they brush their teeth in the morning and evening, and keep the mouth clean.
“The cleaning of the mouth can never replace brushing your teeth.†Han Huakun said that in order to save time, some citizens simply give up brushing their teeth and use mouthwash to gargle. This is not true. He said that the mouthwash can remove the food residue and some soft dirt in the mouth, but it is far from being completely brushed.
