TCM looks at teeth and distinguishes diseases

       A glimpse of a "spot" tells the whole "leopard".

　　This is reflected in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. For example, observation of nail, skin color, lip color, etc. can help to identify diseases. In addition to these common methods, observation of teeth and gums also has a similar role.

　　Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney dominates the bone, generates marrow, and the tooth is the bone.

　　It is closely related to gingiva, kidney, stomach and large intestine, so observing teeth and gums can preliminarily find the pathological changes of kidney and stomach.

　　Traditional Chinese medicine attaches great importance to the identification of gums.

　　If the teeth are sparse or the root of the tooth is exposed, the kidney qi deficiency may be the most closely related to the kidney. Therefore, if no one is poor in the healthy development of the teeth, the kidney is usually poor.

　　For example, in adult patients, the teeth are sparse, the root of the tooth is exposed, or the gingiva is pale and bleeding, the teeth are yellow and withered, and the gingival flesh is atrophic. Most of them are lack of kidney qi. At the same time, we should be alert to any disease that affects the kidney function.

　　According to traditional Chinese medicine, gums are related to the gastrointestinal tract.

　　Such as simple gum swelling, mostly caused by gastroenteritis, may also be related to gastritis; Such as swelling, but also accompanied by loose teeth, strong halitosis and other symptoms, mostly periodontal disease.

　　In addition to insufficient calcium intake or unclean brushing, the causes of this disease are also related to the decreased immunity caused by excessive fatigue.

　　Gingival bleeding, gastrointestinal dyspepsia, and gum bleeding easily occur not only in patients with gingivitis or periodontal disease, but also in people with gastrointestinal dyspepsia. They should eat less spicy food and other stimulating foods.

　　If the gap between the teeth is widened with gum bleeding, it is common in diabetes, hyperthyroidism and other diseases; If the teeth become black or cold, the teeth become longer and dirty, and the teeth become yellow, such as bean paste, during the illness, it indicates that the disease is getting worse, and you should be alert.

　　Loose teeth, one of the signs of osteoporosis

　　The main reason for tooth loosening and falling off is that the alveolar bone is not firm, which is mostly caused by osteoporosis.

　　In this case, we can take precautions in advance by ourselves, such as taking calcium tablets in advance, doing regular physical exercises, and often kowtowing.

　　In addition, loose teeth and unclean teeth may indicate a potential risk of cardiovascular disease.

　　The survey results show that the elderly who have lost more teeth have a high risk of stroke.

　　Therefore, chewing more can help and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

　　On the contrary, people with poor heart should also learn to gargle after meals.
