When you sit up in bed before bed, you either have to pee or forget to brush your teeth. If you’re drowsy and suddenly remember – you haven’t brushed your teeth! What would you do?
When you are in bed, you have no choice. Many people may just choose to give in to sleepiness and go to sleep.
However, this is not a good habit.
Oral bacteria multiply quickly and fully adhere to the surface of the teeth every 15 hours, especially at night during sleep, which is when they thrive.
Don’t be lazy!
In addition to the bad habit of not brushing your teeth at night, there are many other small details in life that affect dental health. Although the teeth are the hardest part of the human body, can be high will chew, but it also silently withstands many storms – bacteria, wear and tear, tartar ……

A
Remind the waiter to hold the bottle opener.
B
Use leverage to bite the cap off the bottle and get a respectful look.
C
Complaint Attendant
Answer: A. A tooth, although the hardest part of the body, may crack if it is subjected to too much force. If the crack is severe, a root canal or even an extraction may be necessary. This is expensive and time-consuming.

C
Hypnotize yourself to be a colleague with bad breath
Answer: B. If you have bad breath for a long period of time, it may be caused by poor oral hygiene or even oral diseases, and if you still have the problem of bleeding from brushing, then periodontal disease has not run away.
You can first consider good cleaning, such as brushing, flossing, regular dental cleanings, and after strengthening oral hygiene, most bad breath will improve. If not, please go to the dentist for a check-up.
No.3
Although I brush my teeth carefully, my mouth always smells bad.
A
Keep your mouth shut so you don’t smell bad breath!
B
Brush your tongue while brushing your teeth
C
Eat more fruit.
Answer: B. There are many bacteria that live on the tongue. Some of these germs cause diseases such as tooth decay and periodontitis, while others cause embarrassing bad breath.
Just because you can’t open your mouth doesn’t mean you don’t have bad breath. Eating fruit is good for you, but it does not solve bad breath.
No.4
Which of the following is undesirable about brushing your teeth?
A
Brush enough for 1 minute
B
Brush 1 time per day
C
Eat breakfast first, then brush your teeth.
Answer: AB. This is a multiple choice question!
One minute of brushing is still too short a time, but more than 2 minutes is needed to brush the whole mouth. The average person has 28 to 32 teeth, and each tooth has 2 to 3 surfaces to brush, so even if it only takes 2 seconds to brush each surface, it already takes more than 2 minutes. In addition, brushing at least twice a day is already mentioned at the beginning of this knowledge!
As to whether you should eat breakfast before brushing your teeth, or brush your teeth before eating breakfast, it’s all up to your personal preference.
No.5
The other day my wisdom teeth were infected and it hurt like hell, but now they are fine, should I?
A
Cursing and cursing, hurry up and eat a good meal and reward yourself!
B
Just in case you take a few more cephalosporins.
C
Get your wisdom teeth pulled by a doctor.
Answer: C. The best way to solve the problem of wisdom teeth is: tooth extraction. However, you can’t pull a tooth during inflammation, which can easily lead to infection, so don’t try to treat it only when it hurts, and take your chances if it doesn’t hurt.
Cephalosporin is an antibiotic, so if you don’t have any corresponding disease or symptoms, taking more of it is not only useless, but also may have side effects.
No.6
After eating, I feel that there are threads of meat stuck in my teeth and I can’t pick them out with my tongue. You should visit ……
A
Pick with your hands
B
With toothpicks
C
Flossing
Answer: C. Floss is soft and does not harm the gums or cause gaps in the teeth.
The toothpicks tend to poke the gums; and picking with your hands is not only dirty and unattractive, but most importantly, most of the time it doesn’t come out!
No.7

A
Brush your teeth vigorously across the face
B
Brush for two minutes at a time.
C
He also used a toothbrush to brush his shoes and the toilet.
Answer: A. Generally toothbrushes should be replaced once every three months, and if they get damaged particularly quickly, it is most likely that you are brushing too hard. If you brush horizontally for many years, you may lose the neck of your teeth, shrink your gums, etc. The most direct symptom is tooth sensitivity.
No.8
When you brush your teeth every day, a little bit of brushing will cause bleeding, and your mouth will be full of bloody smell, what you should do at this time is.
A
Make a Dentist Appointment
B
Switch to a toothpaste that prevents bleeding gums
C
I will never brush my teeth again.
Answer: a. If you have frequent problems with bleeding gums, it could be gingivitis or even periodontitis, and you can make an appointment with your dentist for an examination and treatment.
Gingivitis and periodontitis are closely related to tartar, which cannot be brushed away by brushing your teeth. Some of the toothpastes on the market that can relieve bleeding gums only contain hemostatic agents, which can easily make consumers mistakenly think that their gingivitis or periodontitis has been cured, and delay the treatment, so that when we find that the teeth are loose, it is too late to regret. In addition, not brushing your teeth will only make gingivitis and periodontitis worse.
No.9
When I was shopping in the supermarket, I thought I was out of toothpaste at home and wanted to buy a toothpaste, but there were so many kinds of toothpaste on display, I didn’t know which one to choose. Which of the following is best not to choose.
A
Peppermint Fresh Stain Free Fluoride A Toothpaste
B
B Toothpaste with Fluoride for Whitening and Freshness
C
Heat Sensitive Whitening Anti-Allergenic C Toothpaste with Fluoride
Answer: A. Class, this is a confusing question! Students who examine the questions carefully will find the answers easily! One of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent tooth decay is to use fluoride toothpaste. However, the Fourth National Oral Health Epidemiological Survey found that 40% of adults are not using fluoride toothpaste.
Some people may worry about fluoride poisoning if they use too much fluoride toothpaste and spend more money to buy non-fluoride toothpaste, but the fact is that the dose of fluoride in toothpaste is far from poisoning. In order to reach the harmful fluoride concentration, you need to eat a whole tube of fluoride toothpaste in the morning and evening every day for two weeks without any interruption, and only then will your health be damaged.
I wonder how many of the above questions did you get right?
In fact, according to the Fourth National Oral Health Epidemiological Survey, the oral hygiene habits and health of Chinese people are not good.
36.1% of adults brush their teeth twice a day
34.5% of 12 year olds have caries in their permanent teeth
96.7% tartar detection rate for middle-aged adults
……
In many people’s minds, “losing teeth” is a normal phenomenon, but in fact, as long as you maintain good oral hygiene, you can keep most of your teeth in your old age.
The World Health Organization’s standard for dental health is that an 80-year-old should have 20 unbroken teeth.
Even if you don’t want to retire and still be able to gnaw on a skeleton, if you step back and think about it, in this day and age, when extractions start at $100, root canals start at $1,000, and dental implants start at $10,000, saving is gaining.
