April is National Dental Health Month Did you know that recent studies have confirmed a link between gum disease and heart disease?
It turns out that bacteria from the mouth can travel all through the body via the bloodstream. One of the places these bacteria travel to it the heart! This is just another reason to see your dental hygienist today!
Brushing your teeth twice a day not only keeps your breath sweet, but also helps rid the mouth of bacteria that makes up plaque and can lead to oral infections. To brush properly, point bristles at a 45-degree angle against the gums. Use gentle back-and-forth strokes all over your teeth -- in front, in back, and on chewing surfaces -- for two minutes. If holding a toothbrush is hard for you, try an electric toothbrush. Also brush your gums and tongue. The above article is from: WebMD.com
