Mint: A medical device that can help you detect oral problems

Release date: 2016-11-29

The mouth of a person is actually a place of disgusting, it can give off an unpleasant smell. Viruses, fungi, and more than 1,000 bacteria live in such a dark, humid place. These microbes accumulate in the cracks of the gums and teeth, and sometimes they can cause serious health problems such as tooth decay or gum disease. These conditions can make your mouth smells unpleasant, so the easiest way to check your mouth health is to smell your mouth smell. If it smells, it may mean you are sick.

But smelling your breath is a very challenging thing. I have tried to synthesize the cups, breathe in the palm of my hand, and then quickly smell the escaped gas, but the effect is not good. A Silicon Valley startup called Breathometer wants to solve this problem for everyone. The company introduced a medical device called Mint that looks like a huge candy box with a mouthpiece. The equipment has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The device can be synchronized with the app via Bluetooth, and Mint said the device can work with the smartphone to help users value and improve oral health.

The Breathometer began selling Mint at the end of September for $99.99. According to the App instructions, in order to ensure that enough gas to be tested is accumulated in the mouth, you need to shut up for 30 seconds, then you need to bite Mint's movable mouthpiece, but you don't have to blow it. Mint will inhale a certain amount of gas sample and then use an electrochemical sensor to detect the presence of sulfur-containing molecules in the gas. These measurements are translated into oral health scores: A indicates good oral health, and F indicates that you need to book a dentist to see a doctor.

There are many reasons for the smell of the mouth to become odorous, such as decomposition of food residues or gastrointestinal disorders. But Mint only measures volatile sulfur compounds, which can cause bad odor. Scientists have long linked this sulphide to a more serious gum disease, periodontitis. Nearly half of adults over the age of 30 suffer from periodontitis, but its specific cause is still unclear. It seems that bacteria are clustered between the gums and the teeth. These bacteria and the immune response of the human body cause the gums to swell, bleed and contract. Eventually, periodontitis destroys the alveolar bone and gum tissue, causing the teeth to fall.

It is difficult to assess whether the Mint App algorithm accurately predicts gum disease through the presence of sulfides. No scholars have conducted relevant research before, and Mint has not disclosed the algorithm program. But Terence Risby, chairman of the Global Respiratory Research Association, said that Mint's method of judging whether a user might have gum disease is very reasonable. Although Risby is working with an Italian company to make a breath sampler, he has nothing to do with the Breathometer. "We have a lot of molecules in our breath, including many sulphides. Obviously, if you have periodontitis, your breathing gas will also contain sulphide," Risby said.

Single Vacuum Packed Sweet Corn

Corn (Maize) is cultivated throughout China. It is also widely grown in tropical and temperate regions of the world and is an important cereal. With yields of up to 700-900 kg per mu, maize is one of the more productive grains.

Corn is rich in nutrients, with protein, body fat, tapioca starch, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin A, vitamin E, carotene, methyl cellulose and calcium, phosphorus and iron. Corn is a good source of vitamin C, which can help boost the immune system and help fight cancer. Compounds found in corn have been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. According to research, fresh corn contains 4-5 times more body fat than rice and flour, and contains unsaturated fat, of which 50% are fatty acids, which inhibit the digestion and absorption of cholesterol. It is an excellent medicine for long-term use to reduce blood cholesterol and soften blood vessels, making it an ideal vegetable oil for patients with hypertension, coronary heart disease, obesity and the elderly.

Corn is also a cereal and low-fat food. Researchers have found that a low-fat diet has no significant effect on the risk of several diseases. In past follow-ups, a low-fat diet was found to provide significant and sustainable health benefits.
