Scientists have discovered a definite correlation between healthy teeth an a bright smile with age-related illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease. Indeed, a smile now represents much more than aesthetics alone. Frequent trips to the dentist alongside proper oral hygiene seem to reduce instances of dementia.
As more than 46 million individuals from across the globe suffer from this condition, it is now more important than ever for those with any mouth issues to consult the expertise of a dentist. Some data within these findings has shown that:
– Those with between one and nine teeth are 81 per cent more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease in the future.
– Inflammatory conditions such as gum disease may play an important role.
– Thorough brushing and flossing techniques could help those who are predisposed to dementia-like conditions.
