Tongue Cleaning With A Copper Tongue Scraper Brings Fresh Breath and Sustainable Oral Health

But why copper, you ask? Well, let me share a little secret with you. Copper is not only a visually captivating metal, but it's also an antimicrobial surface. Imagine a microscopic army of bacteria and viruses being vanquished by this noble material. It's like having a superhero on your side, fighting the battle against oral invaders.

Recent studies have highlighted the presence of nano- and microplastics (NMPs) in the human respiratory tract, raising concerns about their impact on respiratory health. This study employs computational modeling to investigate the behavior of NMPs within the respiratory system, focusing on their transport and deposition patterns under realistic breathing conditions. By utilizing a comprehensive respiratory tract model and considering a wide range of particle sizes, this research aims to provide valuable insights into the potential health risks associated with NMP exposure and inform regulatory measures to mitigate these risks.
