What are the harms of long-term use of tooth cleaning powder to teeth

With the improvement of living standards, people pay more and more attention to the requirements for dental health. Tooth powder, as a tooth cleaner, is favored by many people. Although many people still prefer to use toothpaste and there is still some doubt about tooth powder, in fact, tooth powder and toothpaste are just different in form, their effects and functions are basically the same. Of course, more people are worried that tooth cleaning powder will cause some damage to their teeth.

The harm of long-term use of tooth cleaning powder

1. Using tooth powder for a long time does have great side effects! Although tooth powder can make teeth white in a short period of time, its side effects are great! Because tooth powder contains many natural minerals and a variety of hard and angular crystals. This feature can be seen with the naked eye in low-quality tooth powder, and can also be seen under a microscope in good quality tooth powder. Therefore, when brushing your teeth with tooth powder, the hard and sharp edges of the crystals will wear away the enamel on the surface of the teeth, leaving fine grooves on the tooth surface, exposing the dentin and causing the same consequences as "tooth decay": unbearable pain will occur when encountering sour, sweet, cold, hot and other stimuli.

2. At the same time, the surface of the gums is covered with a layer of soft pink mucous membrane. Brushing teeth with tooth powder will cause bleeding gums due to excessive stimulation and friction of the mucous membrane. It is recommended not to use tooth powder in high-fluoride areas in central and western China, such as Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Inner Mongolia, to avoid endemic fluorosis. If you want to simply disinfect your mouth, you can just rinse your mouth with salt.

Precautions for using toothpaste

Tooth powder can whiten teeth in a short period of time, but it should be used with caution if there are any diseases in the teeth.

1. Tooth powder is alkaline, and there will be a slightly astringent feeling after use (this is normal). The most obvious characteristic of unqualified or deteriorated tooth powder is that the powder particles contained in it are relatively large. Using such tooth powder will cause damage to the gums. Therefore, when choosing tooth powder, you must be cautious and choose an authoritative brand with anti-counterfeiting logos!

2. Tooth powder contains more natural minerals and mainly exists in powder form. The color and taste of tooth powder are different depending on the formula. You can choose your favorite color and taste when buying tooth powder.

Note : If you use too much tooth powder at one time to brush your teeth, it will take too much time to brush your teeth, and the astringent taste in your mouth will be stronger. Here we advise you to use tooth powder in moderation.
