Dental department experts in Hunan Province Brain Hospital (Hunan Province Second People's Hospital) introduced that causes dentin allergies, such as caries , wear, wedge-shaped defect , acid erosion, enamel cracks, and various dental diseases that cause enamel damage and dentin exposure, as well as gingival atrophy and root exposure, and sensitive symptoms are often accompanied by teeth.
In addition, patients with neurosis , patients with long-term insomnia, and during menstruation and pregnancy, they will also feel extremely sensitive and uncomfortable with the whole mouth teeth due to increased systemic stress.
Dentinal allergies seriously endanger health. Patients dare not eat cold, hot, sour, and sweet foods, and even cannot bite hard foods. They lose the opportunity to eat delicious foods such as apples and sweet sugar. Some patients dare not brush their teeth, etc., which affects their quality of life. If is not treated in time, it can cause pulpitis, radiculitis, periodontitis and maxillofacial cellulitis, and even systemic diseases.
The prevention and early treatment of dentin allergies is very important. We must master the correct brushing methods to prevent wedge-shaped defects and prevent periodontal diseases, gum atrophy, and root exposure.
Pay attention to personal protection and avoid long-term contact with acid mist . Eliminate special habits and remove causes of excessive wear, such as night teeth grinding, etc. Once allergic symptoms appear, treatment should be done in time.
clinically has many methods for treating dentin allergies. The commonly used methods are as follows: apply 75% sodium fluoride to sensitive areas for 1 to 2 minutes. Fluorine can be combined with the hard tissue of the teeth to reduce the sensitivity of the teeth.
In addition, dip a small cotton ball with 50% thymol solution in the sensitive area, and use a hot filler to head on the small cotton ball, 2 to 3 times, which can form crystals in the dentin tubes and isolate external stimulation. Apply resin materials to the surface of the dentin to block the dentin tubules, which can cause stimulation at the boundary for a long time.
At present, laser treatment for dentin allergies in clinical practice has achieved relatively ideal results. The laser irradiates the sensitive points of dentin, so that the open dentin tubules can be fused, partition the flow of tubular fluid, and eliminate dentin sensitivity.
Home therapy uses fluoride toothpaste and desensitization toothpaste to brush teeth, which can achieve certain therapeutic effects. also has a certain desensitization effect on the sensitive areas of the maxillofacial area, chewing walnut kernels or tea leaves. However, in severe cases and those with no obvious effect of home therapy should seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
