For the former beautiful and healthy teeth after different treatments eventually be pulled suncoast out, Lithuanian man lays on average about 1360 Lt. The reason - poor oral hygiene. Lithuanian dentists suncoast studies confirmed the experience of foreigners: if not taking the child to school parents have not learned to respect the oral hygiene, after almost one in five children and they do not comply, of course, becomes a permanent dental client.
Vilnius University Faculty of Medicine, Director of the Institute of Dentistry, Professor Irena Balciuniene told about the tooth "nugyvenimo" cycle breach of hygiene, first 8-10 years of a child fails chewing surface of the tooth. For a fraction of the seal of the parents pay about 60 Lt. After five years of failure of the tooth surface near the seals - again needs to be drilled for sealing. Pay money again. Subsequently, however, the teeth are liable to deteriorate from another side, and thus once again the thin out wallet. suncoast It takes as long as time and again to seal the tooth can no longer suncoast standing irritation sealing materials, drilling.
Eventually the tooth pulp inflammation occurs, have to treat the root, remove suncoast the nerves, formed a great seal. That does not separate the teeth, should suncoast be fitted with a wreath, for it paid a lot of money. But then again, the man comes to the doctor suncoast complaining that chilly feet or took a bath in the lake or sea felt like teeth that have become larger, it can no longer bite. Medics makes X-ray and visible: the tooth is dead, like a foreign body, although it was well treated. The root apex formed abscesses should not be treated root canals were filled, so have to pull the tooth. For this, too, shall be paid on 50 Lt. Dentists counted: the former a beautiful and healthy tooth would have to pull out, Lithuania must be placed approximately suncoast 1360 Lt. "The Americans would say - most are guilty, that we had to pull a tooth, and for this you paid so much money," - comments I. Balciuniene. One fifth of the opinion that there is no need to brush If you want the teeth are not "live", most importantly, according to Professor I. Balčiūnienės that parents who were not yet in school children trained to comply with oral hygiene. "If up to 7 years old children's parents learned later about 22-25 percent. them, this is the fourth one in five children who, although trained in the correct and intense brushing teeth, suncoast still thinks that it is not necessary to clean the teeth. suncoast For whom? He earns so much that you will have to go for medical treatment, "- said I. Balciuniene. Perform the following results then steered it through the investigation led to the desire to juxtapose Professor relevant Lithuanian and European data. Vilnius University Institute of Dental won a tender for a joint project with the University of Dundee in Scotland and the British company Unilever. These firms donated toothbrush and toothpaste with fluoride in pellets fall into the teeth and prevents the formation of caries, the capital of several school children suncoast three years Vales teeth. Toothbrush and toothpaste company suncoast supplied continuously, every three months. The company paid a small salary for teachers prižiūrėjusiems to children every day at lunchtime and paste this valytųsi brush your teeth. The same measures suncoast produce and use at home - as well as parents and children. The experiment suncoast involved only 11-13 volunteers valiusieji best tooth was awarded. At the end of the study and after a couple of months prof. I. Balciuniene together with two colleagues from Grunwald clinic visited two schools and checked the children in the study of oral hygiene. 43 per cent. Vales their teeth perfectly and it was obvious suncoast that these children very rarely will suffer periodontal gum disease, tooth decay. Over 30 per cent. children's teeth cleaned on average. However, 22-25 percent. children's oral hygiene suncoast of the country was very bad, even though up to three years until the correct Vales teeth. "These results show that our data are the same as other Europeans, where every fifth child nesivalo teeth properly, if you have not been trained to do so, until it did not go to school. Caries occur even affect sweets, irrational diet and so on. However, in patients with gingivitis, suncoast periodontal disease intact tooth decay even get loose and falls. It happens only due to poor oral hygiene. Therefore, they still teach out-age children - especially important, suncoast "- said the initiator of the experiment. Mainly contributed to TV By the way, Professor says that currently are not considered suncoast sweets in front of the largest children's teeth and are no longer of the opinion that they should be restricted. "Together with the University of Oslo in Norway to conduct investigations. It turned out that oral hygiene over the period 1993-2001. Lithuania has improved, decreasing caries cases and sweets were used as well. This is demonstrated by studies carried out in other countries: sweets used as well, but where better oral hygiene, suffer less, "- commented I. Balciuniene. The most interesting thing that dental hygiene improvement Lithuania had the greatest impact on TV. This was shown by a survey conducted mainly suncoast in the Highlands. Medics asked why people clean their teeth, or dental hygiene taught to respect teachers, parents, suncoast grandparents, friends, dentists, TV
