Sucrose is sugar, sugar decays teeth

Answer:

Oral bacteria feed on the sugars in order to create acids that destroy the tooth enamel.

Explanation:

<em>Eating sugar is bad for your teeth health, particularly sucrose. Even if you brush your teeth after a few minutes, sticky glycoproteins ( that's a combination of protein molecules and carbohydrates ) starts the formation of the plaque. At that same time, millions of bacteria stick really fast to the glycoprotein. Even though many bacteria stick to the teeth, only </em><em>Streptococcus mutans </em><em>causes cavities. Then, bacteria use the fructose in a metabolism to get energy. They create lactic acid. </em>

<em>Frequent brushing and flossing are crucial in order to maintain a healthy oral flora and overall health of the teeth.</em>

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

2. "I need to restrict my activity while this catheter is in place."

Explanation:

A peripherally inserted central catheter is a radiopaque, single or double lumen silicone catheter centrally located through the puncture of a peripheral vessel, with medium to long term permanence. The placement of this catheter is a simple procedure, with aseptic technique, can be performed on the patient's bed, properly monitored, and is a procedure exclusively of the duly qualified nurse. Recovery from the procedure is also simple and easy and the patient can continue with his normal daily activities. For this reason, a patient who says "I need to restrict my activity while this catheter is in place" demonstrates that he needs more knowledge about the catheter.
