Bad dental hygiene leads to heart damage




Read following post from International Fresh News :

Should brush their teeth at least twice daily to prevent the risk of cardiovascular disease.

This is the conclusion I would reach the Scottish researchers conducting a study on the relationship between dental hygiene and heart disease and conducted on a sample of 11,000 persons, men and women.

During the eight years of study, researchers were able to observe the behavior and lifestyle of the subjects, failing to understand that whoever is not careful dental hygiene twice daily was 70 percent higher risk of encountering heart disease.

The inflammation of the mouth may lead, in extreme cases, clogging of the arteries and then the attack, but in this case, according to Judy O’Sullivan British Heart Foundation, the problem is a bacterium that lurks between your teeth and can cause severe inflammation.

The only way to remove it, of course, is to use so frequent and effective toothbrush.
The data obtained showed that six out of ten people going to the dentist once every six months, and seven out of ten brush their teeth at least twice a day.

However, there is still a large group of people associated with poor dental hygiene a healthy lifestyle at all, characterized by the habit of smoking, to poor nutrition and lack of regular physical activity.

In these cases, the risk of heart attack is actually very high use of irregular brush is just the tip of the iceberg.
