My teeth are too weak to bite anything

In our daily diet, teeth are the best tools to help us cut food. However, some people find that when they eat, they often encounter the situation where their teeth do not have the strength to bite food. In fact, when this happens, it is very likely that the dental nerve is paralyzed. For example, if we eat a lot of acidic foods, our teeth will become weak. Of course, it may also be caused by dentin hypersensitivity.

Three out of every ten Chinese people suffer from "dentine hypersensitivity". Generally speaking, the peak age for dentin hypersensitivity is around 40 years old, because tooth enamel shrinks as people age. The outer layer of our teeth is enamel, and the inner layer is dentin. When the outer layer is worn away, the "essence" becomes more susceptible to allergies. In addition, the older you are, the more likely you are to experience periodontal atrophy than young people. If your teeth start to become sensitive at a young age, you may need to adjust your eating habits. Who is susceptible to dentin hypersensitivity?

1. Soda Vermicelli:

Clinically, "soda fans" under the age of 20 often suffer from tooth allergy symptoms. Their teeth are so sensitive that even when they drink slightly cooler water, they feel a sour pain in their teeth. This is because the patient himself likes to drink soda, orange juice and other beverages too much and does not drink water often. Carbonated drinks have a corrosive effect on the surface of teeth, which damages the integrity of tooth enamel and makes them more susceptible to sensitive symptoms. Therefore, everyone must remember that carbonated drinks are harmful to teeth. They should be consumed in moderation. Rinse your mouth with clean water after each drink. Drinking more boiled water is a healthy choice for all aspects of your body.

2. The Bone Gnawing Army:

Some people like to gnaw on chicken bones, pork bones, duck necks and other foods, or use their teeth as tools to pry hard objects. These people are also prone to tooth allergies. Experts say that chewing hard teeth often causes the enamel to be damaged, exposing the "essence" and causing dentin allergies. It is recommended that you use the teeth on both sides to eat, and avoid excessive wear caused by using one side of the teeth. As for prying hard objects, there are professional tools for this, so don't use your teeth for everything.

3. Brushing teeth recklessly:

When brushing your teeth, you should move your teeth up and down with moderate force. Cleaning your teeth 2 to 3 times a day is good for your dental health. But some people are too rough and treat their teeth violently or brush their teeth sideways. These actions can cause tooth wear and wedge-shaped defects at the neck of the teeth, resulting in allergy problems.

4. People with damaged teeth:

Once you discover a missing, decayed, or broken tooth, you must fill it as soon as possible to avoid further damage. In addition, nighttime teeth grinding will also wear away the protective material on the surface of the teeth. If you have this problem, it is recommended that you go to the dentist to make a night teeth grinding protective bite pad according to the shape of your teeth, and wear it before going to bed to protect your teeth.
