Impilo yomlomo yinxalenye ephambili yempilo-ntle iyonke. Unokunceda ukuphucula impilo yakho yomlomo ngokuxubha rhoqo, okunceda:

• thintela i-plaque kunye ne-tartar buildup
• thintela imingxunya
• wehlisa umngcipheko wesifo seentsini
• wehlisa umngcipheko womhlaza othile womlomo

Imikhwa yokubrasha yahlukile kumntu kumntu, kodwa iingcali zincomela ukuxubha kabini ngemini kangangemizuzu emibini ngexesha. Kunye nokuxubha rhoqo, kubalulekile ukuba uqwalasele indlela yokuhlamba amazinyo, uhlobo lwebrashi oyisebenzisayo, kunye nezinye izinto.

Funda ukuze ufunde kabanzi malunga nemikhwa yokuxubha ekucetyiswayo, kubandakanya nexesha elifanelekileyo lokuchitha ibrashi kunye neendlela ezilungileyo zokuxubha.

1. Kufuneka ndihlambe amazinyo ixesha elide kangakanani?

Iingcebiso zangoku ezivela kuMbutho wamazinyo waseMelika (ADA) zikhuthaza ukuxubha imizuzu emibini, kabini ngemini. Ukuba uchitha ngaphantsi kwemizuzu emibini uhlamba, ngekhe ususe ipleyiti eninzi emazinyweni akho.

Ukuba imizuzu emibini izandile ixesha elide kunale ubuyenza, awuwedwa. Ngokwababhali besifundo sango-2009, uninzi lwabantu lubrasha nje imizuzwana engama-45.

Uphononongo lujonge indlela ixesha lokubrasha elichaphazele ukususwa kweplate kubantu abangama-47. Iziphumo zibonisa ukuba ukwanda kwexesha lokuxubha ukusuka kwimizuzwana engama-45 ukuya kwimizuzu emi-2 kunokunceda ukususa ukuya kuthi ga kwiipesenti ezingama-26 ngaphezulu.

2.Ndinokuwahlamba njani amazinyo am?

Kunye nokuqinisekisa ukuba uhlamba amazinyo akho ngexesha elicetyiswayo, kukwabalulekile ukusebenzisa indlela efanelekileyo yokuxubha.

I-ADA iphuhlise ezi zikhokelo zokuxubha ngokufanelekileyo:

1. Bamba ibrashi yakho yamazinyo kwi-angle engama-45 ukuya kwiintsini zakho.
2. Bhrasha ngemivumbo emifutshane malunga nobubanzi bezinyo elinye.
3. Hambisa ibrashi yakho yamazinyo ngapha nangapha ngapha nangapha kwamazinyo akho, usebenzisa uxinzelelo oluthambileyo ngelixa ubrasha.
4. Sebenzisa intshukumo yokubuyela umva kunye nokuxukuxa kwiindawo ezihlafunayo.
5. Ukubrasha ngokufanelekileyo umphezulu wangaphakathi wamazinyo akho, bamba ibrashi yakho yamazinyo ngokuthe nkqo kwaye uhlahle unyuse ezantsi ngaphakathi kumazinyo akho.
6. Bhrasha ulwimi lwakho usebenzisa imivumbo embalwa yokubuyela umva ngaphambili ukuze ususe iintsholongwane ezibangela umphefumlo onukayo.
7. Yipule ibrashi yakho yamazinyo emva kokuba uyisebenzisile.
8. Gcina ibrashi yakho yamazinyo kwindawo emi nkqo. Ukuba iqabane lakho, umntu ohlala naye, okanye amalungu osapho agcina iibrashi zawo kwindawo enye, qiniseka ukuba iibrashi zamazinyo azichukumisi. Vumela ibhrashi yakho yamazinyo ukuba yome endaweni yokuyigcina kwisibambi esivaliweyo sebrashi yamazinyo.

Ikwangumbono olungileyo ukuphosa kanye ngosuku ngalunye ngaphambi kokuxubha. I-Flossing inceda ukususa amasuntswana okutya kunye neplaka phakathi kwamazinyo ongenakufikelela kuwo ngebrashi yakho yamazinyo.

3. Leliphi elona xesha lilungileyo lokuhlamba amazinyo?

Abanye oogqirha bamazinyo basenokucebisa ngokuxubha emva kwesidlo ngasinye. Ngokubanzi, nangona kunjalo, ukuba uxukuxa kabini ngemini, uya kuthi xa uxubha kanye ekuseni kanye kanye ngaphambi kokuba ulale.

Ukuba udla ngokuxubha emva kokutya isidlo sakusasa, zama ukulinda okungenani iyure emva kokuba usityile ukuhlamba amazinyo. Ukulinda ukuxubha kubaluleke ngakumbi ukuba uyatya okanye usele into ene-asidi, enjenge-citrus. Ukuxubha ngokukhawuleza emva kokutya okanye iziselo ezineasidi kungasusa i-enamel emazinyweni akho athe buthathaka yi-asidi.

Ukuba uceba ukuba nejusi yeorenji kwisidlo sakusasa, umzekelo, kwaye awunalo ixesha lokulinda iyure, cinga ngokuxubha amazinyo ngaphambi kokutya. Ukuba ayisiyiyo inketho leyo, hlamba umlomo ngamanzi emva kwesidlo sakusasa kwaye uhlafune intshungama engenaswekile kude kudlule iyure.

4. Ngaba ungahlamba amazinyo kakhulu?

Ukuxukuxa amazinyo akho kathathu ngemini, okanye emva kwesidlo ngasinye, akunakulimaza amazinyo akho. Nangona kunjalo, ukuxubha kanzima okanye ngokukhawuleza emva kokutya ukutya okune-acid.

Injongo yokusebenzisa ukukhanya kokukhanya xa uhlamba. Ngelixa kusenokuvakala ngathi ucoca nzulu amazinyo akho ngokuxubha ngenkani, eneneni inokuligqobhoza iqweqwe lakho lezinyo kwaye icaphukise iintsini zakho.

Andiqinisekanga ukuba uxubha kakhulu? Jonga ibrashi yakho yamazinyo. Ukuba i-bristles icabalele, kusenokwenzeka ukuba uxubha kakhulu. Kwakhona mhlawumbi lixesha lebrashi elitsha.

5. Luhlobo luni lwebrashi yamazinyo ekufuneka ndiyisebenzisile?

Kungcono usebenzise ibhrashi yamazinyo ethambileyo ukucoca amazinyo akho. Sebenzisa ibrashi yamazinyo eqinile kunokubangela ukuba iintsini zibuyise umva kunye ne-enamel eyonakeleyo, ngakumbi ukuba uhlala usebenzisa uxinzelelo oluninzi xa uxubha.

Faka ibrashi yakho yamazinyo kwakamsinya nje ukuba i-bristles iqale ukugoba, ukubola kunye nokudinwa. Nokuba i-bristles ayibonakali ngathi iyaphazamiseka, licebo elihle ukubuyisela ibrashi yakho yamazinyo rhoqo emva kweenyanga ezintathu ukuya kwezine.

Ukujonga idatha kwizilingo ezingama-51 kucebisa ukuba iibrashi zamazinyo zombane zinokusebenza ngakumbi kuneebhrashi zemanyuwali. Iziphumo ezilungileyo zavela kwiibrashi zamazinyo zombane ezineentloko ezijikelezayo.

Okwangoku, imikhwa yakho yokuxubha imihla ngemihla ibaluleke ngaphezu kohlobo lwebrashi oyisebenzisayo. Khetha nayiphi na eyona nto ikulungeleyo okanye iya kukwenza ukuba ube nakho ukubrasha imizuzu emibini ecetyiswayo kabini ngemini.

Umzekelo, ukuba uhlala uthambisa xa uhamba, ibrashi yesandla yeyona nto unokukhetha yona.Kodwa ukuba ukhuthazwa yimvakalelo yokucoceka okungaphezulu, ibrashi yamazinyo elungileyo yombane eneentloko ezijikelezayo inokuba yinto ebhetele.

Umgca wezantsi

Ukuxubha amazinyo rhoqo yeyona ndlela iphambili yokuphucula impilo yomlomo. Nenjongo yokuthambisa ngobunono ubuncinci kabini ngemini, imizuzu emibini ngalo lonke ixesha. Iingcali zikwacebisa ukucocwa rhoqo kobuchwephesha, kokubini ukugcina amazinyo akho ecocekile kunye nokubamba iimpawu zangaphambili zezinyo okanye zentsini ezifuna unyango.
