I-Gingivitis

I-Gingivitis ukuvuvukala kwezinsini.

I-Gingivitis iyindlela yokuqala yesifo se-periodontal. Isifo se-Periodontal ukuvuvukala nokutheleleka okubulala izicubu ezisekela amazinyo. Lokhu kungafaka izinsini, imisipha ye-periodontal, namathambo.

I-Gingivitis ingenxa yemiphumela yesikhashana yesibambiso esibhalwe emazinyweni akho. I-plaque yinto enamathelayo eyenziwe ngamagciwane, amafinyila, kanye nemfucumfucu yokudla okwakha ezingxenyeni eziveziwe zamazinyo. Futhi kuyimbangela enkulu yokubola kwamazinyo.

Uma ungalususi uqweqwe, luphenduka idiphozi enzima ebizwa nge-tartar (noma i-calculus) ebanjwa ngaphansi kwezinyo. I-plaque ne-tartar kuyacasula futhi kuvuthe izinsini. Amagciwane nobuthi abukhiqizayo kubangela ukuvuvukala kwezinsini, futhi kube yithenda.

Lezi zinto ziphakamisa ingozi yakho ye-gingivitis:

• Ukutheleleka okuthile kanye nezifo zomzimba wonke (systemic)
• Ukuhlanzeka kwamazinyo okungafanele
• Ukukhulelwa (izinguquko zehomoni kwandisa ukuzwela kwezinsini)
• Isifo sikashukela esingalawulwa
• Ukubhema
• Amazinyo angafakwanga kahle, imiphetho emibi yokugcwaliswa, nezinto zomlomo ezingafaneleki kahle noma ezingcolile (njengezinsimbi zokubopha, amazinyo okufakelwa, amabhuloho nemiqhele
• Ukusetshenziswa kwemithi ethile, kufaka phakathi i-phenytoin, i-bismuth, namanye amaphilisi wokulawula ukubeletha

Abantu abaningi banenani elithile le-gingivitis. Kuvame ukukhula ngesikhathi sokuthomba noma ebusheni obudala ngenxa yezinguquko zamahomoni. Ingahlala isikhathi eside noma ibuye kaningi, kuya ngempilo yamazinyo nezinsini zakho.

Izimpawu ze-gingivitis zifaka:

• Izinsini zokopha (lapho uxubha noma uphonsa)
• Izinsini ezibomvu ngokugqamile noma ezibomvu ngokunsomi
• Izinsini ezithambile uma zithintwa, kepha kungenjalo azibuhlungu
• Izilonda zomlomo
• Izinsini ezivuvukile
• Ukubukeka okucwebezelayo kuzinsini
• Ukuphefumula kabi

Udokotela wakho wamazinyo uzohlola umlomo wakho namazinyo bese ebheka izinsini ezithambile, ezivuvukile, ezibomvu ngokunsomi.

Izinsini ngokuvamile azinabuhlungu noma zithenda kancane lapho i-gingivitis ikhona.

I-plaque ne-tartar kungabonakala ezansi kwamazinyo.

Udokotela wamazinyo wakho uzosebenzisa iphenyo ukuhlola kahle izinsini zakho ukuthola ukuthi une-gingivitis noma i-periodontitis. I-Periodontitis yindlela ethuthukile ye-gingivitis ehilela ukulahleka kwethambo.

Isikhathi esiningi, ukuhlolwa okuningi akudingeki. Kodwa-ke, ama-x-ray wamazinyo angenziwa ukubona ukuthi ngabe isifo sesisabalalisile yini ezinhlakeni ezisekelayo zamazinyo.

Umgomo wokwelashwa ukunciphisa ukuvuvukala nokususa uqweqwe lwamazinyo noma i-tartar.

Udokotela wamazinyo noma owokuhlanzeka kwamazinyo uzohlanza amazinyo akho. Bangasebenzisa amathuluzi ahlukene ukukhulula nokususa imali emazinyweni akho.

Ukuhlanzeka ngomlomo ngokucophelela kuyadingeka ngemuva kokuhlanzwa kwamazinyo ochwepheshe. Udokotela wamazinyo wakho noma owokuhlanzeka uzokukhombisa ukuthi ungabrasha kanjani futhi uvule kahle.

Ngaphezu kokuxubha nokubhabha ekhaya, udokotela wamazinyo angancoma:

• Ukuhlanzwa kwamazinyo ngobuchwepheshe kabili ngonyaka, noma kaningi ezimeni ezimbi zesifo sezinsini
• Usebenzisa imishanguzo yomlomo elwa namagciwane noma ezinye izinsiza
• Ukulungiswa kwamazinyo angaqondwanga kahle
• Kumiselela imishini yamazinyo neye-orthodontic
• Ukuphathwa kwanoma yiziphi ezinye izifo ezihlobene noma izimo

Abanye abantu baye bangakhululeki lapho kukhishwa i-plaque ne-tartar emazinyweni abo. Ukopha kanye nokuthamba kwezinsini kufanele kwehle kungakapheli amasonto ama-1 noma ama-2 ngemuva kokuhlanzwa kochwepheshe nokunakekelwa okuhle ngomlomo ekhaya.

Amanzi anosawoti afudumele noma ama-rinses ama-antibacterial anganciphisa ukuvuvukala kwezinsini. Imithi yokulwa nokuvuvukala engaphezulu kwamanani ingasiza futhi.

Kufanele ugcine ukunakekelwa okuhle ngomlomo kuyo yonke impilo yakho ukuze uvikele izifo zezinsini zingabuyi.

Lezi zinkinga zingenzeka:

• I-Gingivitis iyabuya
• I-Periodontitis
• Ukutheleleka noma ithumba lezinsini noma amathambo emihlathi
• Umsele womlomo

Shayela udokotela wamazinyo wakho uma unezinsini ezibomvu, ezivuvukile, ikakhulukazi uma ungazange ube nokuhlanzwa nokuhlolwa okujwayelekile ezinyangeni eziyisithupha ezidlule.

Ukuhlanzeka ngomlomo kuyindlela engcono yokuvimbela i-gingivitis.

Xubha amazinyo akho okungenani kabili ngosuku. Faka okungenani kanye ngosuku.

Udokotela wakho wamazinyo angancoma ukuxubha nokubhabhadisa njalo emva kokudla nangesikhathi sokulala. Buza udokotela wamazinyo wakho noma owokuhlanzeka kwamazinyo ukuthi akubonise indlela yokuxubha kahle nokufaka amazinyo akho kahle.

Udokotela wakho wamazinyo angase asikisele amadivayisi ukusiza ukususa okufakwa ebhokisini. Lokhu kufaka phakathi okokuxubha okukhethekile, amabhulashi wamazinyo, ukunisela ngamanzi, noma amanye amadivayisi. Kusafanele uxubha futhi uvule amazinyo akho njalo.

I-Antiplaque noma i-antitartar toothpipes noma i-rinses yomlomo nayo inganconywa.

Odokotela abaningi bamazinyo batusa ukuba kuhlanzwe amazinyo ngokomsebenzi okungenani njalo ezinyangeni eziyisithupha. Ungadinga ukuhlanzwa kaningi uma ujwayele ukuthuthukisa i-gingivitis. Ungahle ungakwazi ukususa lonke uqweqwe, noma uluxubha ngokucophelela futhi ululaze ekhaya.
