Selama 2 minggu, huhu terpaksa menahan sakit bila makan dan minum.. ahli rumah suruh pergi klinik, ang tak mahu, tulah akibatnya.. haha.. sebab ada 2 assumption n aku ingat yang 1st tuh:
1) Gigi baru nak tumbuh sebab telah mencapai umur puluhan (bajet dh matang la)..
2) Gigi ada problem...

HA!!! bila gi klinik assumption 1st kena buang.. habis peluang nak ada gigi ( kawan gigi baru).. sori gigi.. assumption kedua yang menang..
huhu.. terjadilah conversation kat atas masa kat klinik tuh.. huhu..

ok, now back to what i'm going to say here..

what is pulp and the structure of the teeth??
yang menyebabkan bahayanya kalau problem dengan teeth ni sampai ke pulp tu...

Gigi ni terdiri drpd beberapa part..
1) Enamel (mineralized part)2) Dentin ( connective tissue below the enamel)
3) Cementum
4) Pulp ( bahagian yang disebut diatas) (nerve of teeth)



Rupanya problem aku ni kecil je.. A dental caries.. cuma kalu sampai pulp tu yang bahaya tu.. Alhamdulillah.. Lepas pegi klinik, dia dh bubuh composite (sejenis dental restoration.. alah orang slalu panggil simen tuh la)..

Some of the causes of this to happen:

1) Sebab teeth tu sendiri maybe acidic environment dalam mouth cavity (more than 5.5) menyebabkan part of our teeth (enamel, dentin) kita soluble sbb our teeth mainly composed of mineral..

2) oral bacteria.. eg: Lactobacillus acidophilus, Actinomyces viscosus, Nocardia spp., and Streptococcus mutans

3) Fermentable Carbohydrate.. bacteria in oral oral cavity usually convert sucrose, fructose and glucose into lactic acid in glycolytic process (fermentation process).. This high acidic medium causing demineralized of the teeth

4) the matter of time..

5) and many more predisposing factor..

How to prevent this??

1) most important is oral hygiene.. brushing and flossing properly..



2) diet modification (less sugar n snack)

3)many more

P/s: Jagalah gigi kita, supaya tak menganggu nak stadi parasitology.. hihi
