Thanks for the invitation. Betel nut is one of the four major southern medicines in China. It is also known as Hammer Jade, Binmen, Olive Seed, Green Chai, and National Horse. Native to Malaysia, betel nut is mainly distributed in Southeast Asia, tropical Asia, East Africa and part of Europe, the Pacific region. Betel nut has the ability to "reduce edema, open joints, strengthen the spleen and regulate the middle, cure heartache and accumulation" and many other diseases. In addition, betel nut is also effective in treating glaucoma, increased blood pressure, and worms. If you chew betel nut for a long time, it will cause your teeth to turn black, because the betel nut juice is purple-red, so betel nut should be eaten sparingly, and chewing it for a long time will also lead to oral diseases, oral cancer, and poisoning if it is overdosed.

1. Bad for the teeth themselves
Chewing betel nut for a long period of time is a serious abrasion of the teeth.
2. Bad for periodontals
Betel nut juice mixed with lime will easily form calculus, which not only affects aesthetics, but also periodontal health. Betel nut fibers are coarse and hard, and may also puncture the gums or block the gaps between the teeth, resulting in inflammation of the gums due to compression.
3. Bad for the oral mucosa
In mild cases, it may cause mucosal lesions, and in severe cases, it may evolve into oral cancer.
