Do Regular Dental Cleaning Improve Dental Health/Overall Health?

YES! And since dental hygiene is directly related to optimal health. Gum disease, and abscess or an infected tooth can and does affect the health and function of the human body. Deep cleaning addresses buildup of plaque and tartar on the teeth, which provide the environment in which bacteria grows and multiplies.

Here is a look at how a dental cleaning can boost health, well-being, looks, memory and more.

Enhance Your Memory With a Dental Cleaning

The Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry reports adult patients who have gingivitis in which the gums bleed and swell perform worse on memory tests and tests for additional cognitive skills than those with healthy gums and mouths. Those saddled with gingivitis were more inclined to perform at a low level on two tests subtraction and verbal recall. Each of these skills is used in normal daily living.

A Dental Cleaning Enhances Overall Health as Well as Oral Health

Numerous studies have shown there is a strong tie between gum disease and cardiovascular disease. Letting the dentist clean your teeth on a regular basis will greatly reduce the odds of gum disease and a subsequent heart attack, stroke, blocked blood vessels or other life-threatening medical condition. Keep in mind that gums reflect the condition of the entire body. They are an excellent indicator of your state of health.

Improve Your Look and Feel Better About Yourself

This is the beautiful hue you need to improve your overall appearance. You will not hesitate to smile, laugh, eat or open your mouth in public for any other reason after your dental cleaning freshens up your mouth’s look and feel.

 

A recent study that analyzed 100,000 adults in Nigeria national health insurance database determined 24 percent of those who had undergone a teeth cleaning by a dentist or a dental hygienist enjoyed a reduced risk for a heart attack.

They also enjoyed a 13 percent risk reduction for stroke compared to those who had never had a dental cleaning. This reduction was especially strong for those who had a full dental cleaning at least once per year.

 

Research has shown teeth cleaning decreases bacteria that cause inflammation and heightens the functionality of blood vessels to ensure the proper flow of blood.

Some within the oral health community believe inflammation within the gums triggers inflammation within the heart. It appears as though we will continue to learn more about the importance of dental cleanings as we continue to research oral health.
