Preventing Periodontal Disease
Why Preventing Periodontal Disease Is So Important
Maintaining healthy gums is important for a number of reasons. To start, you need healthy gums to keep your teeth firmly in place and maintain an attractive smile. But the health of your gums also affects the health of your entire body.
Numerous research studies show that preventing or effectively treating periodontal disease can help you minimize your risk for other inflammation-associated health conditions, including cardiovascular disease (e.g. high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke), Alzheimer’s disease, and diabetes.
