Mouth Bacteria
Mouth Bacteria, are they all harmful or good ? What are the different types of bacteria found in the mouth?
Usually, there are many microbes that live in the human mouth. The first microbes inhabit your mouth, when you produced your first yelling, immediately after your birth. That means before your birth, your mouth was without microbes (sterile).With the time many micro organisms come to colonize the oral cavity such as: bacteria-fungi-viruses-protozoa.
All those categories grow in peace, if there is no severe pathology that comes to trouble this balance. Each area in the oral cavity may be colonized by special species of microbes.
Certain of bacteria content in human mouth prefer live in the spaces between gums and teeth, between the teeth, on the roof of the mouth or just in the cracks in the front or in the back of the tongue. They eat food debris which become lodged in parts of your mouth. We can mention different types of bacteria found in mouth and known as harmful such as: streptococcus mutants-the lactobacilli. They cause tooth decay and even the loss of teeth.
It is always recommended to brush,floss and use mouthwash which have good effects on bacteria every day to maintain safe the mouth.
Moreover, you have to control the amount sugar that you take every day for not to allow bacteria to find what to transform into acids to attack teeth.
When you use your dental floss to clean inter dentally spaces, you dislodge food debris which maybe colonized by bacteria and release bad odor. Remember every time you open your mouth, new bacteria come to inhabit.
Researches showed that streptococcus mutants and lactobacilli content in the human mouth were not so harmful. They grow and protect also the area.Thus, they have good effects in mouth.
But with the time by the new lifestyle that people possess where they use more refining products, those bacteria became their enemy. Before this tendency toward refining foods, people lived for a long time with their teeth.
The teeth might undergo abrasion or attrition, but they are not so decayed as it is the case today.In the saliva, there are ions bicarbonate that repair damage caused to teeth.
Now because of excessive use of refining sugar which is good for the digestive system of bacteria, the saliva does not arrive to repair at time the damage. Therefore the teeth can be easily attacked by microbes.
In the human mouth there are more than 100 species of bacteria, hundreds of species of fungi, protozoa and viruses that grow normally and are difficult to understand.
It reveals important for any body to keep clean his mouth to avoid plaque can build up along your gum line and release bad odor.
The accumulation of plaque may cause gingivitis which is the mildest form of gum diseases. Left untreated, the gingivitis may lead to periodontal diseases.
One of the more severe form of gum diseases is the acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis, called also trench mouth. The saliva plays a protector role.
It maintains the balance in the buccal area by its enzymes that destroy bacteria.
Generally bacteria don’t enter the blood system unless you traumatize constantly your gum with the toothbrush or the floss. If your immune system is not weak, the presence of these bacteria in you blood system is not harmful.
But the National Institute of dental and Cranio Facial Research thinks that as many as 18 percent of preterm, low birth weight babies born in the U.S.A each year may be related to oral infection.
It estimated that mouth bacteria release toxins, which interfere with the growth and development of the fetus through placenta by mother’s bloodstream.
That arrives at the same time, the mother’s mouth infection stimulates the production of labor triggering substances too fasts, greatly triggering premature labor and birth.
It is more than necessary for every one to have a good oral hygiene to protect itself against bacteria.
A lot of bacteria are normal resident of your mouth a bad hygiene or a severe disease can disturb the balance causing health problem.
Even your baby needs attention about bacteria from baby's mouth in pumped milk. See your dentist for regular cleanup every six mouth to protect yourself from mouth bacteria.
