Does it hurt to wash your teeth?

Incorrect brushing methods can easily lead to the formation of tartar. The best way to remove tartar is to use ultrasonic cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaning can not only be used to remove tartar, but also remove plaque on the teeth, which is very effective for cleaning our cavities. However, many people worry about the pain of ultrasonic teeth cleaning when cleaning their teeth. So does it hurt?

According to experts, teeth cleaning is actually painless, but your teeth may feel sore and tender when you do it for the first time. In addition, the following situations may also occur. As long as you strictly follow the prescribed technique and adjust the water volume and speed appropriately, there will generally be no pain during the teeth cleaning process.

A few people experience soreness and pain: After tartar is removed, the tooth roots are exposed and are more sensitive to cold, hot, sour, sweet and other stimuli, and may experience soreness and pain. After teeth cleaning, patients may have the illusion that the gaps between their teeth have become wider. This is not caused by the treatment, but by the periodontal disease itself. If tartar is not removed in time, the gums will further shrink, which will lead to serious phenomena such as tooth growth, alveolar bone absorption, and tooth loosening and falling.

Bleeding gums are caused by plaque, tartar, etc., which stimulate the gums to become inflamed. The more severe the inflammation, the more obvious the bleeding gums. If your teeth bleed when you brush them, it means your gums are seriously inflamed. Only completely healthy gums will not bleed during cleaning.

Warm reminder: although teeth cleaning can remove plaque and tartar and protect the oral cavity and teeth, not everyone can have teeth cleaning. Teeth cleaning will not cause pain, but before cleaning, you must go to a professional medical institution for a detailed oral examination to determine whether you are suitable for the teeth cleaning operation. If you are diagnosed with certain diseases, please cure them in time before having your teeth cleaned.

In fact, no matter it hurts or not, it is necessary to wash your teeth regularly to maintain our oral health. However, some people are not suitable for teeth washing, such as people with gum tumors and some patients with blood diseases. There is also a special group of pregnant women who are not suitable for teeth washing. Therefore, it is recommended that pregnant women have their teeth washed before preparing for pregnancy.
