Gingivitis

I-Gingivitis kukudumba kweentsini.

I-Gingivitis yindlela yokuqala yesifo se-periodontal. Isifo sePeriodontal kukudumba kunye nosulelo olutshabalalisa izicwili ezixhasa amazinyo. Oku kunokubandakanya iintsini, imisipha yexesha, kunye nethambo.

I-Gingivitis ingenxa yeempembelelo zexesha elifutshane zedipozithi emazinyweni akho. Iplaque sisixhobo esincangathi esenziwe ngeebhaktiriya, i-mucus, kunye nenkunkuma yokutya eyakhelayo kwiindawo ezibonakalayo zamazinyo. Ikwangunobangela ophambili wokubola kwamazinyo.

Ukuba awuyisusi i-plaque, ijika ibe yidipozithi enzima ebizwa ngokuba yi-tartar (okanye i-calculus) ethi ibanjiswe emazantsi ezinyo. I-plaque kunye ne-tartar ziyacaphukisa kwaye zivutha iintsini. Intsholongwane kunye neetyhefu abazivelisayo zibangela ukuba iintsini zidumbe, zithambe.

Ezi zinto ziphakamisa umngcipheko we-gingivitis:

• Ezinye izifo kunye nezifo
• Ucoceko lwamazinyo olubi
• Ukukhulelwa (utshintsho lwehomoni lwonyusa ubuntununtunu kwiintsini)
• Isifo seswekile esingalawulwayo
• Ukutshaya
• Amazinyo angalunganga, imiphetho erhabaxa yokugcwaliswa, kunye nezinto ezingalunganga zomlomo (ezinje ngeebreyisi, amazinyo okufakela, iibhlorho nezithsaba
• Ukusetyenziswa kwamayeza athile, kubandakanya i-phenytoin, i-bismuth, kunye neepilisi ezithile zolawulo lokuzalwa

Abantu abaninzi banesixa esithile se-gingivitis. Ihlala ikhula ngexesha lokufikisa okanye ebudaleni ngenxa yokutshintsha kwehomoni. Inokuhlala ixesha elide okanye ibuye rhoqo, kuxhomekeke kwimpilo yamazinyo akho neentsini.

Iimpawu ze-gingivitis zibandakanya:

• Ukopha kweentsini (xa uxubha okanye ukubetha)
• Iintsini ezibomvu ezibomvu okanye bomvu-bumfusa
• Iintsini ezithambileyo xa zichukunyiswa, kodwa kungenjalo zingenabuhlungu
• Izilonda zomlomo
• Iintsini ezidumbileyo
• Ukubonakala okuqaqambileyo kwiintsini
• Umphunga ombi

Ugqirha wamazinyo uza kuvavanya umlomo wakho kunye namazinyo akhangele iintsini ezithambileyo, ezidumbileyo, ezibomvu-bomvu.

Iintsini zihlala zingenabuhlungu okanye zithambile xa i-gingivitis ikhona.

I-plaque kunye ne-tartar zingabonwa emazantsi amazinyo.

Ugqirha wakho wamazinyo uza kusebenzisa inkqubo yokuhlola iintsini zakho ukumisela ukuba une-gingivitis okanye i-periodontitis. I-Periodontitis luhlobo oluphambili lwe-gingivitis ebandakanya ukuphulukana nethambo.

Uninzi lwexesha, iimvavanyo ezingaphezulu azifuneki. Nangona kunjalo, i-x-ray yamazinyo inokwenziwa ukubona ukuba isifo sinwenwele na kwizakhi ezixhasayo zamazinyo.

Injongo yonyango ukunciphisa ukudumba kunye nokususa i-plaque yamazinyo okanye i-tartar.

Ugqirha wakho wamazinyo okanye ucoceko lwamazinyo uya kucoca amazinyo akho. Banokusebenzisa izixhobo ezahlukeneyo ukukhulula nokususa iidipozithi emazinyweni akho.

Ucoceko lomlomo luyimfuneko emva kokucoca amazinyo. Ugqirha wakho wamazinyo okanye ucoceko uya kukubonisa indlela yokubhrasha kunye nefloss ngokufanelekileyo.

Ukongeza kokuxubha kunye nokubhabha ekhaya, ugqirha wamazinyo unokucebisa:

• Ukucoca amazinyo kabini ngonyaka, okanye amaxesha amaninzi ngakumbi kwezifo zentsini
• Sebenzisa i-rinses yomlomo elwa ne-antibacterial okanye ezinye izixhobo
• Ukulungiswa kwamazinyo angalunganga
• Ukutshintsha izixhobo zamazinyo kunye nezamazinyo
• Ukuba nazo naziphi na ezinye izifo ezinxulumene noko okanye iimeko zonyango

Abanye abantu abonwabi xa kususwe i-plaque kunye ne-tartar emazinyweni abo. Ukopha kunye nokuthantamisa kweentsini kufuneka kunciphe kwisithuba seveki enye okanye ezi-2 emva kokucocwa ngobuchule kunye nokunakekelwa ngomlomo ekhaya.

Amanzi afudumeleyo anetyuwa okanye i-rinses ye-antibacterial inokunciphisa ukudumba kwentsini. Amayeza okuchasana nokuchasana nawo anokunceda.

Kufuneka ugcine ukhathalelo lomlomo ubomi bakho bonke ukugcina isifo seentsini singabuyi.

Ezi ngxaki zinokwenzeka:

• Ukubuyela kweGingivitis
• Ixesha
• Usulelo okanye ithumba leentsini okanye amathambo emihlathi
• Umsele womlomo

Fowunela ugqirha wamazinyo ukuba uneentsini ezibomvu, ezidumbileyo, ngakumbi ukuba awukhange ucoceke kwaye uhlolwe kwiinyanga ezi-6 ezidlulileyo.

Ukucoceka ngomlomo yeyona ndlela yokuthintela i-gingivitis.

Hlamba amazinyo akho kabini ngosuku. I-Floss ubuncinci kanye ngemini.

Ugqirha wakho wamazinyo unokucebisa ukuba uhlambe ibrashi kunye nokufaka iflosss emva kwesidlo ngasinye nangexesha lokulala. Buza ugqirha wakho wamazinyo okanye ucoceko lwamazinyo ukuba akubonise indlela yokuxubha ngokufanelekileyo kunye nokufaka amazinyo.

Ugqirha wakho wamazinyo unokucebisa ngezixhobo ukukunceda ususe iidipozithi. Oku kubandakanya ukukhethwa kwamazinyo okukhethekileyo, iibrashi zamazinyo, ukunkcenkceshela amanzi, okanye ezinye izixhobo. Kusafuneka uhlambe kwaye uphetshise amazinyo akho rhoqo.

I-Antiplaque okanye i-antitartar yokuthambisa okanye yokuhlanjwa ngomlomo nayo inokucetyiswa.

Oogqirha bamazinyo abaninzi bacebisa ukuba amazinyo acocwe ngobuchule ubuncinci rhoqo kwiinyanga ezi-6. Unokufuna ukucocwa rhoqo ukuba uqhelekile ekuphuhliseni i-gingivitis. Awungekhe ukwazi ukususa yonke i-plaque, nokuba ucoca ngenyameko kwaye ubetha ekhaya.
