Dental diseases include dental caries, wedge-shaped defects, pulpitis, and others. Patients should regularly massage their gums with a toothbrush to promote gum blood circulation and prevent dental problems. If any abnormalities in the teeth occur, patients should promptly visit the hospital's dental department for timely treatment to avoid worsening of the condition. It is recommended that patients avoid spicy, irritating, and greasy foods in their diet.
