1. Can I fix my teeth by massaging my gums?

Sticking to massaging gums in the morning and evening can thicken gingival epithelial tissue and enhance keratinization. At the same time, it can also promote blood circulation, improve nutrition supply, help metabolism, and correspondingly strengthen the protection ability against bacteria and local stimulation, which can not only prevent gingival atrophy, but also enhance gingival regeneration and tooth firmness.

2. Four methods of massaging gums

Extraoral massage: after brushing your teeth before going to bed at night, put your right index finger on the corresponding extraoral skin of your gums and massage all parts of your gums from left to right and from top to bottom. The massage direction is that the upper teeth are downward and the lower teeth are upward. Gently massage each 50 times, or you can do small circle rotation massage. The gums on the inside of the teeth can be pressed on the gums with the tongue, with the upper teeth down and the lower teeth up, and each massage is 50 times.

Intra-oral massage: After washing hands and gargling, put the index finger of your left hand on the gum in your mouth, with the upper teeth down and the lower teeth up, massage 50 times each, and then rotate or move back and forth 50 times each. Note: If possible, you can wear sterilized finger massage.

Toothbrush massage: after brushing your teeth every day, tilt the bristles about 45 degrees and press them on the gums to make them temporarily ischemic and white. After 5 ~ 10 seconds, relax the toothbrush and make the gums re-congested. Repeat this operation.

Chewing massage: Eating more fiber-rich vegetables (such as celery) or solid fruits (such as apples) can massage the gums.

3, the secret of Chinese medicine to protect teeth

1, love teeth and nourish kidneys first.

Chinese medicine believes that any local disease is related to people's overall health. Kidney governs bone, and the health of teeth is directly related to the function of kidney. For example, tooth thinning and tooth loosening are all related to kidney deficiency.

You can wipe your teeth with Eclipta prostrata or licorice every day; Herbs such as Herba Epimedii, Rhizoma Dioscoreae and Rhizoma Drynariae are used for tonifying kidney. After grinding, they are eaten. The former cleans teeth, while the latter tonifies kidney and strengthens bones. Winter is the golden season for tonifying kidney, protecting teeth health from the root and spending the rest of my life with you.

Recommended tooth porridge-black bean porridge, the birthplace of Achyranthes bidentata.

Formula: Achyranthes bidentata 12g, Rehmannia glutinosa 15g, Rehmannia glutinosa 15g (wrapped in medical gauze and taken out after porridge cooking), 60g black beans and 0/00g japonica rice, and boiled into porridge.

Suitable for people with kidney deficiency.

2, 30 times a day, the teeth are stronger.

Su Shi, a great writer, still has good teeth in his later years. It is said that he has a good habit that accompanies him all his life-knocking his teeth 30 times a day. Experts believe that knocking teeth is a simple and effective way to protect teeth. In leisure time or after three meals, the upper and lower teeth collide rhythmically and make a slight noise for 30 consecutive times, which can not only exercise facial muscles, but also protect teeth. Other Chinese medicine practitioners suggest closing your eyes and knocking on your teeth when defecating, which can also strengthen your teeth.

3. Saliva has a natural protective effect on teeth.

Chinese medicine believes that saliva is a natural cleanser in the mouth. Tongue stirring in the mouth 1 min can produce abundant saliva. After gargling for a while, slowly swallow it and let the mouth clean itself. This is a good way to protect your teeth. In addition, if you feel dry mouth, in addition to timely hydration, you can also contain 2 pieces of licorice or a plum to stimulate saliva secretion.

4, gargling is good for dental health.

Rinse your mouth immediately after each meal to remove the corrosion of food residue on your teeth. If you need to attend cocktail parties frequently, rinse your mouth with warm water, tea or soda water after each cocktail party. Because fruit juice, fruit wine and carbonated drinks are corrosive to teeth, long-term adhesion to the surface of teeth will increase the chance of dental diseases.

5, gum disease, check the stomach.

Chinese medicine believes that gum disease is related to gastrointestinal function. The swelling and bleeding of gums may be caused by stomach fire. People with stomach fire symptoms can eat more shredded sesame lettuce (blanched in boiling water or soaked in warm salt water, sprinkled with black sesame seeds, salt and sesame oil, and mixed well), watermelon Cui Yi (peeled off the thin skin of watermelon and mixed with the green pulp of watermelon to make cold salad or soup), and reed root soup (30-50g of boiled water of reed root). Diet should be light in autumn and winter, and eat less spicy and high-calorie foods to avoid getting angry and hurting gum health.

6, a reasonable diet is conducive to dental health.

Usually, you should eat more foods such as walnuts, bean products, cheese, seafood and so on. Long-term consumption of exquisite desserts is not only bad for intestinal health, but also easy to leave "sweet hidden dangers" in the gaps between teeth. Eating hard food is more conducive to dental health. Choose easy-to-bite foods such as corn, kelp and beef jerky, and mix them with apple slices, raisins and celery sticks as snacks. The process of chewing these foods is a self-cleaning of teeth.
