Xiao Zhang from Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, said that he had three rotten teeth two years ago and never filled them. Later, his body became inflamed frequently until he was caught in the rain, had a high fever and was tired.
Subsequently, the condition worsened and symptoms such as coma and epilepsy appeared.
Doctors in Shenzhen People's Hospital found that he had been playing games all night recently, eating irregularly and getting wet in the rain, which led to low immunity. Bacteria in rotten teeth can infect the brain.
Finally, part of the skull was removed, and Xiao Zhang was saved by all-out rescue.
1. How did Xiao Zhang get these germs?
The pathogenic bacteria in tooth decay can spread to the whole body through blood, which is seriously harmful to health.
However, Xiao Zhang has three rotten teeth that have not been treated. In the past two months, he played games all night, and his diet was irregular. Because of the low immunity in rain, odontogenic anaerobic bacteria entered the blood through the mouth and then infected the brain.
Therefore, once problems are found, they should be dealt with in time without delay.
Second, what situation of teeth needs to go to the hospital for treatment in time?
1, rotten teeth
Rotten teeth are what we often say: decayed teeth, decayed teeth and decayed teeth. It is caused by the interaction between the acid produced by Streptococcus mutans in the mouth and food residues (especially sugary substances), forming sticky substances attached to the teeth and gradually eroding the teeth.
After the occurrence of dental caries, if not treated in time, minor ailments will lead to "serious illness". Xiao Zhang in the news was infected with dental caries and almost died.
2. Toothache
If you have a toothache, you must treat it as soon as possible to remove the cause. Toothache is a precursor symptom, and there may be deeper pathogenic factors behind it, especially when patients suffer from other basic diseases such as diabetes and have poor systemic resistance. If they ignore it and don't seek medical treatment in time, small problems may become big problems.
If toothache is accompanied by swelling, fatigue, cold, fatigue and poor resistance, we must pay attention to it. Don't take toothache too lightly! I feel that "just bear it"!
Therefore, if you have tooth decay or toothache, you must seek medical attention in time, and fill your teeth, do root canals or extract teeth according to the degree of dental caries; There are no teeth above the gums, only residual roots are left, which need to be extracted; Stubborn roots are equivalent to burying a "thunder". When the immunity is weak, the gums will be red and swollen, the teeth will hurt, and even lead to coma and epilepsy in the news.
In daily life, everyone should pay attention to oral hygiene and brush their teeth in the morning and evening. At the same time, it is necessary to see a dentist regularly, have oral examination and clean teeth, remove dental plaque and calculus in time, and reduce the harm of dental plaque and calculus to teeth.
Oral health is more important than anything else, and prevention is more important than treatment. It is recommended to treat as soon as possible!
