Dental Hygiene in China

Almost half a billion people in China never brush their teeth, according to the country's health chiefs.The Chinese Preventive Medicine Society believes that less than half of the country's 900m rural population brush regularly while just 10% of the 400m living in cities clean properly.







Officials have also found that many people are using twigs or green tea to clean teeth, either because of tradition or a lack of money.

The findings have prompted officials to launch a major health education campaign to boost oral health across the country.

  1. I got useful information from your Blog.The tonsil stones is brought on by poor digestion and toxins which can be present in the body. The herbal approach recommends avoiding foods which might be rich in acids and toxins akin to red meats, white flours, white sugar, salt, ghee, butter and fried foods.
