Case 2: “filling teeth” is not in place, leading to major problems

Old man Wang suffered from dental disease, so two of his lower row of teeth were repaired, and three false teeth were installed in the upper row of teeth. A while ago, when Uncle Wang walked into the hospital again with toothache, the doctor gave him a preliminary diagnosis: oral mucosal cancer.

According to the doctor, there are many kinds of dental restorations, such as fixed bridges, full crowns, removable dentures, etc. When filling and filling teeth, the “road doctor” often uses fake and shoddy materials, which will cause complications such as infection and pain after use. If stimulated by these fake and shoddy products for a long time, it is easy to induce oral diseases and even cancer. If the user does not pay attention to oral hygiene, oral diseases and even cancer may be caused. (Article 8.1 of 39 Health Net)
