Since the epidemic prevention and control, it has been almost two months since careful calculations. I believe everyone has more or less lived a fairy life of eating, sleeping and eating in Britain and the United States every day.
But! This kind of life that is reversed day and night will not only make you weigh and your skin worse, but also make you have very serious oral problems with such irregular diet and routine.
, what possible oral problems do we have during this time of staying at home? What should we do if it appears? Which oral emergency medical treatment is needed? How to seek medical treatment? How should we take good protection when seeking medical treatment?
. Many dentists will answer these interlocking questions, hoping to solve these mysteries.
Q
Does the novel coronavirus have any impact on our daily dental treatment?
A
of course will have an impact. In conventional oral treatment, some high-speed running machines, such as fast and slow mobile phones and ultrasonic teeth cleaners, will be used to generate a large amount of water, gas and other splashes, which can increase the risk of spreading online virus information. Therefore, during the prevention and control of new coronary pneumonia, many commonly used oral therapy instruments are prohibited or used with caution, and the treatments that can be provided are also limited accordingly.
Q
Can wisdom teeth be removed during the epidemic prevention and control period?
A
During the epidemic prevention period, wisdom teeth removal is generally not recommended to avoid unnecessary risks of viral infection. If the patient has pericoriitis of wisdom tooth, he or she can also deal with the problem of the affected tooth through the doctor or use antibacterial drugs under the guidance of the doctor.
Q
Does the tooth be damaged need to be repaired as soon as possible?
A
Dental caries are a chronic disease, and the delayed treatment will not develop during the period, which prompts the rapid research progress of caries ; in addition, due to the limited oral treatment equipment available during the epidemic prevention and control period, it is difficult to continuously improve the relevant treatment of caries. In view of this, if adolescents have dental caries and no obvious symptoms, they can wait until the epidemic is over.
Q
What should I do if I have oral problems during the epidemic, such as the most common toothache?
A
Don’t rush to go to the hospital right away! There are several ways to help: home self-rescue, online outpatient clinics, and emergency medical treatment.

It is recommended to go to the " Internet + Hospital" first for treatment, and then go to the hospital if necessary.
Q
Does oral diseases cause similar symptoms of the novel coronavirus, such as fever?
A
Oral diseases, such as pericoric coronary inflammation, acute pericoric abscess, cellulitis, maxillofacial injuries, vesicular stomatitis, etc., may all lead to fever. Because the oral specialty hospital has not set up a fever clinic, a comprehensive analysis hospital with conditions can be given priority during the fever. At present, many hospitals, including dental specialty hospitals, have opened "Internet + Hospital". If there are fever symptoms related to oral diseases, you can also consult oral diseases in the "Internet + Hospital". What should I do if I have toothache when I have
?
A
A
There are many oral health diseases that cause toothache. Common ones include pulpitis (inflammation of dental nerve tissue), apical periarthritis (inflammation of the tooth root), periodontitis, wisdom tooth periarthritis, etc. The technical design of different diseases and courses is not the same. Professional doctors need to diagnose and develop treatment options based on the characteristics of pain and methodology.Some toothaches can be continuously improved by taking medications or strengthening oral care under the guidance of a doctor, while some toothaches must be effectively relieved by learning professional treatment methods.

Q

The oral emergency departments of all hospitals have prepared corresponding protection plans, but when patients are in the oral emergency, it is still particularly important to cooperate with the hospital's requirements for individuals, such as: wearing compliant masks to go to the hospital for treatment, waiting time is about 1.5 meters, cooperating with frontal temperature tests, advocating electronic payments (avoiding hand touching cash), washing hands correctly or using hand disinfectants, truthfully reporting travel history and medical history, etc.

can appropriately extend the wear time of single auxiliary orthopedic device to 2-3 weeks before replacing it; if the braces have been used up, you can stay on the last pair of braces worn and do not need to be replaced for the time being.
Q
Is there any risk in going to the hospital for dental treatment during the epidemic prevention and control period? Dental hospitals are not large comprehensive hospitals, so isn’t the possibility of cross-infection smaller?
A
is risky. For the prevention and control of new coronary pneumonia, oral treatment is a relatively safe and high medical technology operation. First, because the anatomical position of the oral cavity is the entrance to the respiratory tract; second, because of the special nature of oral treatment, the patient and the doctor have a close relationship. At the same time, a large amount of gas and droplets will be generated during the operation, increasing the risk of spreading the new coronary pneumonia. Therefore, during the epidemic prevention and control period, you should be cautious when going to the hospital for teeth.
Q
What should I do if there is swelling and painful gums?
A
Periodontal disease, wisdom tooth pericoritis, acute apical pericarditis and other diseases may cause gums and even facial swelling and pain.

Some people with swollen and painful gums can be carried out under the guidance of the doctor's correct oral hygiene turnover; in some cases, the medication may be relieved under the guidance of the doctor; in some cases, professional treatment, such as abscess discharge, etc., must be relieved. It is recommended to go to the "Internet + Hospital" for treatment first, and then go to the hospital for treatment if necessary.
Q
Remedy device bracket loosening, falling off, or the steel wire is shifted?
A
If the loosening bracket does not damage the oral mucosa, it can not be treated for the time being. If the mucosa is inserted, you can wrap it with chewing gum on your own. The bracket falls off and will not be dealt with for the time being. If the wire is displaced, try to reset it yourself with tools such as hands or small tweezers. If it cannot reset itself, you can wrap the end with chewing gum to reduce damage to the mucosa. If conditions permit, you can also contact the attending physician directly or conduct online consultation at the "Internet hospital" of the medical institution.
Q
What should I do if my teeth are completely peeled off or broken? After the teeth are completely removed, the most important thing to learn to save yourself on the spot: take the teeth, carefully wash (the crown part), replant yourself, seek medical treatment as soon as possible (30 minutes is the golden rescue time, which significantly improves the efficacy). After the teeth are broken, find a block and seek medical treatment as soon as possible. Different treatment plans are different damage. Important research tips: After tooth trauma, if some symptoms such as nausea and vomiting occur, please go to the hospital for a comprehensive environment analysis as soon as possible to rule out the possibility of craniocerebral injury first.
