Flossing Will Prevent Disease spreading Through Your Body

 Floss Daily

As strange as it may seem, flossing daily may extend life expectancy.

Flossing prevents gum disease and, by doing so, prevents bacteria in your mouth from passing through compromised tissues and entering the bloodstream. These bloodborne bacteria can migrate to the heart where they can infect and damage the heart muscle and valves.

Gum disease, otherwise known as periodontitis, affects 11% of the world's population and is the sixth most common disease worldwide.

Severe periodontitis is directly linked to not only an increased risk of heart disease but also an increased risk of death from heart attacks, according to a 2020 review of studies in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology.

I know how this must sound to you, but it's really true. Periodontal Disease is very serious and if you have ever had your gums craped you never want to do that again. Anything that ends up in your blood stream can infect your organs. Your mouth is loaded with bacteria to add in digestion, but the stomach acid will kill that bacteria but when you have periodontal disease your gums are blooding which means the gums around the tooth are raw and soar so the bacteria in your mouth can enter your blood stream. 

The is the way that bacteria bypasses the safeguard that keep the blood clean and free of germs. Without that protection the bacteria in your blood can infect your organs. Talk to your dentist at the first signs of soar gums.
