PLAQUE AND YOUR TEETH…. PART 3

Periodontal and other Disease:
 
Research has found links connecting the health of your mouth, example-active periodontal disease and the number of other bodily health issues such as:
1) Heart Disease
2) Diabetes
3) Dementia
4) Rheumatoid Arthritis
5) Premature birth
Researchers have not conclusively linked to what exactly it is but suspect that the Oral bacteria escapes into the blood stream and can injure major organs.
 
INFLAMMATION: is likely the common factor. Periodontal disease, marked by inflammation may boost inflammation throughout the body. This inflammation in turn, is an underlying problem in diseases including heart disease and rheumatoid arthritis.
