Many scientific studies have proven that there is a direct and strong relationship between oral health and overall health. Our mouth is the gateway to the outside world for our body, and neglect here can affect our entire system.

According to World Health Organization (WHO) reports; approximately 36 million people die each year due to "non-communicable chronic diseases" such as cardiovascular problems, diabetes, cancer, and respiratory tract disorders. Scientific data also show that dental caries are among the most common chronic diseases. Since oral and dental health shares common risk factors with life-threatening diseases, dental caries and gum diseases pave the way for the emergence of many preventable systemic diseases.

What Causes Tooth Sensitivity?

Sudden throbbing and sensitivity in teeth may be a sign of some abnormalities inside the mouth. Both structural problems and daily habits play a role in the emergence of tooth sensitivity.

Main Factors Causing Tooth Sensitivity

• Dental caries and advanced gum recession
• Habit of night teeth grinding (bruxism) and clenching
• Invisible micro-cracks on tooth enamel and root cracks
• Incorrect and excessively hard tooth brushing habits
• Frequent consumption of acidic and overly sugary foods

6 Golden Rules to Protect Your Oral and Dental Health

The most critical step in protecting oral health is to prevent the formation of dental plaque where harmful bacteria thrive. When teeth are not cleaned regularly, these accumulated plaques produce acid that damages the tooth enamel. To delay plaque formation and protect the oral flora, you can add the following steps to your routine:

• Brush Twice a Day: Brush your teeth at least twice a day using the correct technique that won’t harm your teeth structure. You can get guidance from your dentist for the right brush selection.
• Use Dental Floss: Use dental floss daily and regularly to clean the food residues and plaque between teeth where brushes cannot reach.
• Watch Your Diet: Avoid overly acidic liquids and sugary foods that can damage the tooth surface and enamel.
• Choose Desensitizing Products: If you have established sensitivity problems, prefer desensitizing toothpastes that support tooth enamel.
• Don’t Skip Regular Dentist Check-ups: Visit your dentist at least twice a year for professional cleaning and general check-ups.
• Support with Natural Mouth and Throat Sprays: You can benefit from herbal content products to support your daily oral hygiene routine, create a protective barrier against external factors, and soothe oral wounds. Zade Vital Nigefix Spray, developed for this purpose with its content of black cumin, eucalyptus, and medicinal mint oil, can perfectly accompany your daily routine.
