According to the relevant report data released by the International Epidemiology in 2019, more than 80% of adults in the world have gum atrophy. It has become the most common oral disease for people born in the 1980s and 1990s. According to the WHO standards, the incidence of gum atrophy is about 10%. According to the latest data on gum atrophy in Germany in 2024, the incidence of gum atrophy is 3%-5%. Among the young and middle-aged people aged 35-44, about 83% of people have gum atrophy problems. When smiling, the terrifying "black triangle" of the periodontium is more eye-catching than the smile. The high symptoms of gum atrophy and the continuous addition of "new blood" clearly show that the phenomenon of gum atrophy is becoming more and more popular and younger.
Although the data shows a trend of skyrocketing year by year, many friends still do not pay attention to it. They think that gum atrophy mostly occurs in middle-aged and elderly people, and it is not a big deal at present. What they don’t know is that oral hygiene is directly related to gum atrophy, but it is indirectly related to age.
How to prevent gum atrophy from happening at a younger age? Gum atrophy refers to the exposure of tooth roots caused by the gums retreating to the root side of the enamel-cementum junction. It usually occurs in the gums near the lips and cheeks, and the symptoms of gum atrophy are often irreversible, so we should spend more time on the prevention and improvement of gum atrophy than on treatment.
The cause of gum atrophy is simple. Some patients are induced by oral inflammation, and some patients are induced by periodontitis. The most common cause is the accumulation of foreign matter (tartar) at the gingival margin of the gums, which stimulates the gums. Some people, due to the increase of age, the decline of various functions, the decline of oral self-cleaning ability, and the inability to properly clean the mouth, lead to excessive bacterial reproduction and aggravation of oral inflammation. Under the multiple stimulations of inflammation and foreign matter, the degree of gum atrophy, which was not serious, continues to increase. It can be seen that the relationship between oral hygiene and gum atrophy is huge.
Oral inflammation is caused by various pathogenic bacteria in the oral cavity. In the unfavorable environment of oral eutrophication and warm and humid conditions, they interact to form biofilms attached to various parts of the oral cavity, and they have not been properly and scientifically cleaned for a long time. Excessive bacterial accumulation leads to gum and periodontal inflammation. Dental plaque attaches to the root of the tooth and forms tartar after calcification, which continuously stimulates the gums and causes gum atrophy.
Biofilm is difficult to remove by conventional cleaning methods. Common cleaning methods such as mouthwash and tongue brush cannot damage and deeply clean biofilm. Some products are easy to irritate the oral mucosa. Long-term use will also cause changes in the microenvironment in the oral cavity and cannot be used for a long time. Unremoved biofilm will continue to cover the entire mouth in just 12 hours.
At present, common oral cleaning products are mainly concentrated in tongue brushes and mouthwashes, and there are almost no oral mucosal cleaning products. Common tongue brushes are hard in texture and fixed in shape. They can only be used for tongue cleaning. Long-term use will damage the mucosa and tongue milk, causing taste degradation. They cannot be used for cleaning mucosa in other parts of the mouth. It is very easy to cause mucosal tearing and damage the already delicate mucosal tissue. Common mouthwashes on the market are also diverse, but most of them are chemical reagents designed to inactivate and sterilize. The damage to biofilm is minimal and cannot achieve the purpose of deep cleaning. Long-term use will also break the balance of oral microecology, affect the oral health environment, and reduce the self-cleaning ability and resistance of the oral cavity.
How to clean your mouth correctly? Based on the delicate characteristics of oral mucosa, TongueClear analyzes the characteristics of people with oral problems. From the perspective of efficient and safe oral cleaning, it physically removes oral biofilm and food residues through the physical perspective of the oral airbag cleaner. The brush head of TongueClear oral airbag cleaner is made of maternal and infant food-grade silicone material, 3D airbag design, and Flexconfcorm adaptive fitting technology, which can fit the intricate internal space of the mouth. It is soft enough and flexible, and it is not easy to damage the delicate oral mucosa. The patented one-piece scraping texture design can massage the gums while physically erasing oral biofilm and food residues, promote blood circulation in the periodontal area, improve Yaying's resistance, reduce the discomfort caused by oral inflammation, reduce the degree of gum atrophy, and improve gum tissue metabolism
On the basis of physical cleaning, TongueClear oral mucosal gel uses biological enzymatic hydrolysis technology to deeply clean tooth pathogens without adding chemical agents. Lysozyme deeply enzymatically hydrolyzes pathogens to destroy the stubborn biofilm of multiple bacterial combinations. Glycosidase decomposes residual sugar in the mouth to destroy the living environment of bacteria and continuously remove harmful bacteria, avoiding the oral flora disorder caused by the decrease of oral resistance and inducing other oral diseases.
Most oral problems are related to oral hygiene. The eutrophic oral cavity and its moist and warm environment will lead to the proliferation of harmful bacteria in the oral cavity. The stubborn bacterial biofilm cannot be scientifically suppressed. Large-area biofilm will cause oral inflammation and further threaten oral health. Common cleaning methods in the market have the disadvantages of strong dependence, strong cleaning limitations, and poor results. TongueClear takes oral mucosal cleaning as the starting point and takes science, safety, and sustainability as the product development direction. Scientific oral sterilization helps us prevent oral diseases. TongueClear uses physical and biological means to better remove harmful pathogenic bacteria in the oral cavity to protect the oral cavity. Gum recession should not be underestimated, and the initial gum bleeding caused by recession should not be underestimated. If you ignore it, it will be too late when the teeth fall out.
