Usuku Lomhlaba Omomothekayo

By Kate M, MPH

“Yenza isenzo somusa - siza umuntu oyedwa amamatheke.”

Ufundeka kanjalo-ke umusho wokudonsisana wosuku lwe-World Smile Day, olugujwa minyaka yonke ngoLwesihlanu lokuqala luka-Okthoba futhi oluzobonwa ngo-Okthoba 1, 2021. Lolu suku olujabulisayo lwadalwa ngumculi uHarvey Ball, umakhi wesithombe sobuso obumomothekayo obuphuzi. Wayekholelwa ukuthi singathuthukisa umhlaba ukumamatheka okukodwa ngasikhathi.

Sonke sizwile ukuthi ukumamatheka kuyathathelana, kepha bewazi ukuthi kunesayensi yangempela yokusekela lesi simangalo? Ubufakazi obukhulayo bubonisa ukuthi ukulingisa ubuso kuyinto engokwemvelo yomuntu. Ezimweni zenhlalo, silingisa ukubukeka kobuso kwabanye ukuze kuvuse ukusabela komoya kithi, kusiphoqe ukuba sizwisane nabanye futhi sakhe impendulo efanele emphakathini. Isibonelo, uma umngane wethu ebukeka edabukile, nathi singafaka ubuso obudabukile singanakile. Lo mkhuba usisiza siqonde ukuthi abanye bazizwa kanjani futhi usivumela ukuthi sithathe umuzwa ofanayo. Lokhu akusebenzi kuphela lapho abanye bedabukile - ukumamatheka kungaba nomphumela ofanayo.

Ubuwazi ukuthi simamatheka kancane njengoba sikhula? Ucwaningo lubonisa ukuthi izingane zimamatheka izikhathi ezingaba ngu-400 ngosuku. Abantu abadala abajabulayo bamamatheka izikhathi ezingama-40 kuya kwezingama-50 ngosuku, kuyilapho umuntu omdala ojwayelekile emamatheka izikhathi ezingaphansi kwezingu-20 ngosuku. Ukumomotheka okuvela enhliziyweni akubheki okuhle kuphela, kepha futhi kunezinzuzo eziningi zezempilo.

Isibonelo, ukumamatheka kukhipha i-cortisol nama-endorphin. Ama-endorphin angama-neurochemicals emzimbeni wakho; Zinciphisa izinhlungu, zinciphisa ukucindezeleka, futhi zikhuthaze umqondo wenhlalakahle jikelele. ICortisol yihomoni esebenza nezingxenye ezithile zobuchopho bakho ezilawula imizwa yakho, ukugqugquzela nokwesaba. ICortisol ilawula ukuthi umzimba wakho uhlanganisa kanjani ama-macronutrients, igcina ukuvuvukala phansi, ilawula umfutho wegazi, ilawula umjikelezo wakho wokulala / wokuvuka, futhi ikhulise amandla ukuze ukwazi ukusingatha ukucindezeleka, ubuyisele ibhalansi yethu yomzimba. Ukumomotheka kunezinzuzo ezinjengokunciphisa ukucindezeleka nobuhlungu, ukukhuthazela okwandayo, ukuthuthukisa amasosha omzimba, nokuqinisa imizwa yakho. Ukumamatheka kushintsha ngokoqobo ukwakheka kwethu kwamakhemikhali!

Ukumamatheka okunempilo kunezinzuzo eziningi, kanti impilo yomlomo engeyinhle ingaholela ezinkingeni ezinkulu zempilo. Izimbaza nesifo sezinsini kungenza kube nzima ukumamatheka noma ukudla kahle. Impilo yomlomo engemihle ingaholela ezifweni zezinsini, njenge-periodontitis, engaba nomthelela ekulahlekelweni kwethambo, ilimaze unomphela ithambo elisekela amazinyo akho. Lokhu kungadala ukuthi amazinyo akho akhululeke, awe, noma adinge ukuthi asuswe. Olunye ucwaningo luveza ukuthi amabhaktheriya asuka ezinsinini angaya enhliziyweni yakho futhi abangele ukwehluleka kwenhliziyo, amahlule egazi, nokufa uhlangothi. Izifo zezinsini zingadala nokuzala ngaphambi kwesikhathi kanye nesisindo sokuzalwa esiphansi kwabesifazane abakhulelwe. Isifo sikashukela silimaza amasosha omzimba futhi singenza ukutheleleka ngokwengeziwe kwenzeke, okungaba nomthelela omubi kushukela wegazi.

Ukugcina impilo enhle yomlomo kubaluleke kakhulu enhlalakahleni yethu yonke, ikakhulukazi njengoba sikhula noma silawula ezinye izimo ezingamahlalakhona. Izindaba ezimnandi ukuthi izinkinga eziningi ezihambisana nempilo yomlomo ebuthakathaka ziyavikeleka! Shayela njalo emva kokudla, bona udokotela wamazinyo wakho okungenani kanye ngonyaka (njalo ezinyangeni eziyisithupha kuhamba phambili), futhi ungakhohlwa ukufaka ifloss. Ezinye izinto esingazenza zibandakanya ukugcina ukudla okunempilo ngokudla ushukela omncane; uma uphuza utshwala, ubuphuze ngokulinganisela; futhi uvikele noma yiluphi uhlobo lokusetshenziswa kogwayi olungeyona eyenhloso yokomoya noma yamasiko.

E-Colorado Access, sisebenza ukuqinisekisa ukuthi amalungu ethu athola ukunakekelwa kwamazinyo okungenani kanye ngonyaka. Lokhu sikwenza ngezinhlelo ezimbili; Cavity Mahhala e Ntathu kanye nohlelo lwe-Early, Periodic, Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) Lokuqala, Lokukhumbuza Amazinyo.

Ukubona udokotela wamazinyo njalo kubalulekile kuwo wonke umuntu futhi kanjalo nemikhuba yezempilo yomlomo ekhaya. Njengoba ukuziphatha kwethu kwansuku zonke kudlala indima ebaluleke kangako ekunqumeni isimo sethu somzimba, siphinde sikhuthaze impilo yomlomo ngezinye izinhlelo zokuzibandakanya zedijithali ukukhuthaza amalungu ukuthi anakekele amazinyo abo nempilo yomlomo nsuku zonke. Imiyalezo yezempilo yomlomo ifakiwe ezinhlelweni zamanje ezifana ne-Healthy Mom Healthy Baby, ASPIRE, ne-Text4Kids (inhlalakahle yezingane), kanye nezinhlelo ezizayo ezifana ne-Text4Health (impilo yabantu abadala) kanye ne-Care4Life (ukuphathwa kwesifo sikashukela).

Sithola ukumamatheka okukodwa, futhi amazinyo enzelwe ukuhlala impilo yonke. Ngokuvakasha okujwayelekile kudokotela wamazinyo nemikhuba emihle yezempilo yomlomo, singakwazi ukugcina ukumamatheka okunempilo okungatheleleka labo abasizungezile. Ukumamatheka kangaki ngosuku? Ngabe ufuna ukumamatheka ngaphezulu? Nansi inselelo kuwe: Ngokuzayo lapho uzithola useduze kothile ongagqokile ukumamatheka kwabo, noma ngabe ukwi-elevator, esitolo sokudla, ubambe umnyango uvulekile, njll. Yima ubamoyizele. Mhlawumbe lesi senzo esisodwa somusa omomothekayo sizokwanela ukubenza baphinde bamoyizele. Ukumamatheka kuyathathelana, ngemuva kwakho konke.
