Isifo seentsini esinxulunyaniswa neengxaki ze-Covid-19 kuphononongo olutsha
Uphononongo olutsha lufumanise ukuba abantu abanesifo seentsini ezikwinqanaba eliphezulu basengozini enkulu yokufumana iingxaki kwi-coronavirus, kubandakanya nokubakho amathuba okuba bafune i-ventilator kwaye babulawe sesi sifo. Isifo seentsini sinyuke ukuya kuthi ga kwithuba elithoba lokufa ngenxa ye-Covid-19.Ikwafumanise ukuba izigulana ezinesifo somlomo ziphantse zaphinda kahlanu amathuba okuba zifune ukuncediswa komoya.
ICoronavirus ngoku yosulele abantu abazizigidi ezili-115 kwihlabathi liphela malunga ne-4.1 yezigidi ezivela kwisifo se-UK.Gum sesinye sezifo ezingapheliyo emhlabeni.E-UK, kuqikelelwa ukuba i-90% yabantu abadala banohlobo oluthile lwesifo segum.Ngokutsho kweSiseko seMpilo yomlomo, isifo segum sinokuthintelwa ngokulula okanye silawulwe kwizigaba zokuqala.
UGqr. Nigel Carter OBE, uMlawuli oyiNtloko we-charity ukholelwa ukuba ukuhlala phezulu kwimpilo yakho yomlomo kunokudlala indima ebalulekileyo ekulweni nentsholongwane.
UGqr. Carter uthi: “Olu luhlolisiso lwamva nje kuninzi oluyila unxibelelwano phakathi komlomo nezinye iimeko zempilo.Ubungqina apha bubonakala bukhulu kakhulu-ngokugcina impilo yomlomo emnandi, ngokukodwa iintsini ezisempilweni-uyakwazi ukunciphisa amathuba akho okuba nezona ngxaki zinzima zekoronavirus.
UGqr. Carter wongezelela ngelithi: “Ukuba asinyangwa, isifo seentsini sinokuphumela ekubeni namathumba, yaye ebudeni beminyaka eliqela, ithambo elixhasa amazinyo linokonakala.“Xa isifo seentsini sihambela phambili, unyango luba nzima ngakumbi.Ngokunikwa ikhonkco elitsha kunye neengxaki ze-coronavirus, imfuno yongenelelo kwangoko iba nkulu ngakumbi.
Uphawu lokuqala lwesifo seentsini ligazi kwibrashi yakho yamazinyo okanye kwintlama yamazinyo oyitshicayo emva kokubrasha.Iintsini zakho zisenokopha xa usitya, nto leyo eshiya incasa embi emlonyeni wakho.Umoya wakho usenokuba mnandi.
I-Oral Health Foundation inomdla wokuqaqambisa ukubaluleka kokuthatha amanyathelo kwangethuba ngokuchasene neempawu zesifo seentsini, kulandela uphando olubonisa ukuba abantu abaninzi kakhulu bayayihoya.
Amanani amva nje aqokelelwe licandelo lesisa abonisa phantse iBrits enye kwabahlanu (19%) ngoko nangoko bayeka ukubrasha indawo yokopha kwaye phantse isinye kwishumi (8%) ayeke ukuxukuxa ngokupheleleyo. “Ukuba amazinyo akho aqala ukopha, qhubeka nokucoca amazinyo kunye nebrashi ngapha kwentsini.Ukususa i-plaque kunye netartar kumazinyo akho kubalulekile ekulawuleni nasekuthinteleni isifo seentsini.
“Eyona ndlela isebenzayo yokuthintela isifo seentsini kukuxukuxa amazinyo akho ngentama yamazinyo enefluoride imizuzu emibini kabini ngemini kwanokucoca phakathi kwamazinyo akho ngeebrashi zamazinyo okanye ngeflousing yonke imihla.Unokufumanisa ukuba ukufumana i-mouthwash ekhethekileyo kuya kunceda.
