Analysis:
Beauty teeth include cleaning teeth and fixing teeth. Cleaning teeth is to keep the teeth white and clean or improve the yellow and black teeth by cleaning dirt; Fixing teeth is to make teeth firm and firm by tonifying kidney, consolidating essence, nourishing yin and blood, and clearing away heat and filth, or to make withered, dull, loose and swollen teeth shiny and firm.
according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, "teeth are the gateway of zang-fu organs". Teeth are the first important organ of human digestive system, which plays the role of grinding grains and helping digestion, and is also an important gateway to control vocalization, and it is also a factor that cannot be ignored to affect the beauty of face. Therefore, beautifying teeth has been paid great attention to by medical scientists in past dynasties.
Etiology and pathogenesis
The causes of abnormal teeth and gums are as follows:
1) Deficiency of kidney essence is caused by deficiency of natural endowment, inappropriate aftercare, excessive atrioventricular injury, and kidney deficiency in old age, which leads to deficiency of kidney essence and qi, while kidney dominates bone, while teeth are bone, and teeth are deficient in kidney essence, teeth are not nourished, and kidney qi is not solid at all, so teeth are withered. For example, "Sheng Ji Zong Lu" said: "The kidney dominates the bones, and the teeth are in addition to the bones. If the kidney is strong and the bone marrow is strong, the teeth will be white and bright; Today, the kidney is weak and not proud of the bone marrow, so the teeth are withered and yellow and black. "
2) The kidney is damaged due to chronic illness, insufficient natural endowment, excessive atrioventricular syndrome, excessive eating of warm and dry products that rob the yin, and kidney yin is damaged, and the deficiency of yin leads to excessive fire, so that the teeth are sparse, shaken, exposed and the gums are ulcerated and atrophied. "Zhi Zhi Fang" says: "Kidney deficiency leads to gaping teeth, exuberance leads to firm teeth, and deficiency heat leads to tooth movement". If you feel heat evil and consume body fluid, your teeth will be yellow and dry.
3) Deficiency of Qi and lack of blood. Due to long-term illness, deficiency of Qi can't produce blood, or blood can't be transformed into qi, and both qi and blood can't be transferred to the gums. If the gums are not nourished, the teeth will be pale. If you feel wind evil again, you will shrink with meat. The General Record of Shengji said: "Deficiency of Qi and blood, improper management, wind evil attacking deficiency, and guests between the teeth will make the muscles cold and blood weak, and the teeth will shrink, gradually revealing, and never attaching to the teeth."
4) Pathogen invading Yangming meridian (hand Yangming, foot Yangming), and the blood circulation of the meridian is blocked, then the teeth are yellow and black, withered and shaken. "Theory of Pathogens and Stagnation" says: "When wind-cold passes through its meridians, the marrow and bone will be damaged by blood, so the teeth will be dark and black, which is called calendar"; "Wind and evil air-conditioning guest in the meridians, marrow deficiency and weak blood, can not be nurtured in the bones, boring and moist, so the teeth are yellow and black."
In addition, eating spicy and fatty food, turning heat into fire, or emotional failure, stagnation of qi into fire, or internal invasion of heat evil lead to excessive stomach heat, while the stomach meridian is in the heel, the stomach fire is smoked along the meridian, and the qi and blood are stagnant, so the gums are swollen and painful, even festering; When the blood collateral is injured by heat, the teeth will bleed.
5) Tooth and heel diseases, such as tooth and gum diseases, dental caries and tooth carbuncle, can also lead to abnormal color and shape of teeth.
In addition, long-term smoking, drinking a lot of strong tea, chronic lead poisoning or fluorosis, taking certain drugs such as tetracycline and chronic diseases can also cause changes in tooth color and morphology.
