Recently, Shenzhen Xima Aikangjian Oral, together with Beijing Yisheng Charity Foundation, 3M China and other institutions, jointly launched the 3rd Teeth Warrior Public Welfare Activity, with “Children’s Fluoride Dental Care” As the theme, it is planned to apply fluoride to 100 children between the ages of 3 and 12 for free in Shenzhen. The event will run until December 20. According to reports, children are a high incidence of dental caries. If the caries of deciduous teeth is not treated in time, it can gradually develop into apical periodontitis, or cause the loss of deciduous teeth due to caries, which may not only affect the normal eruption of permanent teeth, but also lead to the arrangement of permanent teeth. Disorder, cause dental and jaw deformities, and even hinder children from eating, affect nutrient intake and digestion, and cause stunting. Fluoride coating is a very effective way to help children improve oral health and prevent dental caries. By coating a layer of fluoride on the surface of the teeth, the teeth are put on a layer of “anti-caries armor” to achieve a protective effect.

Doctor applies fluoride to children’s teeth

At the launch site of the activity, the doctor applied fluoride to the children’s teeth, and also conducted a detailed examination of the whole mouth, telling parents what aspects should be paid attention to, and teaching children how to take care of their teeth. In order to reduce children’s fear of seeing the teeth, during the process of applying fluoride, the doctor also interacted with the children to guide them so that they could relax their fear of seeing the teeth, and were willing to cooperate with parents and doctors to actively receive treatment. It is reported that since its establishment, Xima Aikang Dental has insisted on cooperating with community kindergartens, early education centers, primary and secondary schools, etc. to carry out the “Little Dentist” caring action. So far, more than 1,000 sessions have been carried out, and more than 20,000 children have participated. Through dental science lectures, on-site demonstrations of correct tooth brushing, free public assistance and other forms, it has influenced, corrected and changed their oral health care habits and some of their parents’ wrong oral health awareness, so that children can learn through experience and grow up healthily through learning. .
