Illustrated Life (Best-Selling Upgraded Version): Your Teeth Can Live 80 Years (Interesting Illustrated Version)

In Western countries, for a young person, if your teeth are crooked, it means your family background is lower than the middle class; if your teeth are covered with smoke stains and have a lot of tartar, it means you lack education and good hygiene habits. Therefore, Westerners refer to teeth as "personal business cards". What happened to our teeth China's third oral health epidemiological survey shows that the average middle-aged person aged 35 to 44 in my country has 4.5 Dental caries, and more than 90% of the people suffering from dental caries have untreated dental caries. There is a widespread mentality among the public of "don't see a doctor if it doesn't hurt", which is the main reason why the treatment rate of oral diseases in my country is low. Dental health is related to human lifespan If you are still stuck in the understanding stage that "toothache is not a disease", then let me tell you that dental health is not only an oral problem, but also closely related to the health of the whole body. Once there is a problem with the teeth, it often affects the ears, nose, throat, head and face. It will not only cause inflammation in these parts, but may even lead to systemic diseases. For example, once periodontal bacteria enter the blood, they may cause blood vessel obstruction under a series of effects, leading to heart disease and stroke... Therefore, to a certain extent, dental health is closely related to human lifespan and cannot be ignored. How long do our teeth last? The view of modern oral medicine is that if we can protect our teeth well, we can have 20 of our own teeth working in the mouth by the time we are 80 years old. This has already reached the World Health Organization's goal of oral health care for the elderly. However, this requires practicing good oral hygiene habits, and it's best to start at an early age and continue throughout your life. Taking good care of your teeth starts from the first page of this book!
