TATIZO LA "UDATA" (TONGUE TIE)

Udata ni tatizo la kuzaliwa(congenital malformation) linalopelekea mtu kushindwa kutoa ulimi nje na kushindwa kuupandisha juu. Mara nyingi tatizo hilo huwakumba watoto wachanga zaidi. Tatizo hili kitaalamu huitwa Tongue tie /Ankyloglossia

    UDATA HUSABABISHWA NA NINI?

Kwa kawaida sehemu ya chini ya ulimi(Lingual frenulum) huwa inatengana na sakafu ya mdomo(floor of mouth) ili kuwezesha ulimi kufanya mjongeo ndani  na nje ya mdomo . Hivyo endapo utando huo wa chini wa ulimi ukashikana  na kuungana na sakafu ya mdomo hupelekea mtoto kupata "udata"/Ulimi kushikwa.(tongue-tie)

DALILI ZA UDATA KWA MTOTO MCHANGA

- Mtoto kushindwa kutoa ulimi nje au kuupandisha juu

-Mtoto kushindwa kunyonya vizuri maziwa ya mama

-Ulimi wa mtoto kuwa na umbo la moyo

-Mtoto mwenye udata pia hushindwa kumeza na hupelekea maradhi katika mfumo wa chakula

-Mtoto mwenye udata hushindwa kuzungumza/kuongea vizuri

The following are five foods that fight against bad breath:

DENTAL CALCULUS

 INTRODUCTION

Dental calculus refers to the mineralized bacterial plaque that is fused on natural teeth surface where there is constant supply of saliva. Dental calculus composed primarily of calcium phosphate mineral salts deposited between and within remnants of freely viable microorganisms. 

FORMATION

Dental calculus simply are formed from food remainings that stuck between teeth, thus when oral bacteria and mineral salts form saliva mix with those remnants form calcified plaque that trap stains on teeth and cause discolouration.

Calculus formation is associated with number of clinical manifestations such as bad teeth,receding gums,teeth discoloration and chronically inflamed gingiva

Commonly seen over the buccal suface of maxillary molars and lingual surface of anterior teeth where salivary duct open into oral cavity

 

  

   TREATMENT

   Plaque/calculus buildup can be removed by dental professionals using ultrasonic dental tools such as periodontal scalers. So as soon as you realize this problems you are advised to see dentists for medical treatment.

 

     

PREVENTION AND HYIGENIC ADVICE
