Your mouth\u2019s health can affect or be affected by a number of factors in the rest of your body. Continue reading to learn more about the connection and start living better today!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Body Is A Complex Machine<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not one of our body parts exists on its own: the heart needs blood to run, and the brain needs oxygen from our lungs to live. Our general health, therefore, relies on the strength of each of our parts. To keep your machine running strong, make sure your oral health is in check by keeping up with good oral hygiene. Brushing for two minutes, twice a day, flossing daily and visiting your dentist every six months are all crucial for a healthy smile. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Patients who suffer from tooth and gum problems may also experience the following health issues. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Heart Trouble<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Gum disease has been linked to a number of problems in the heart, including high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke and cardiovascular disease. While the link hasn\u2019t been fully explained, the thinking is that when the gums are infected, bacteria has easy access to the bloodstream &#8212; and a straight entry to the heart. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition to excellent cleaning habits at home, tobacco users should also kick the habit immediately. Smoking and other forms of the substance are one of the greatest risk factors for gum disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Missing Teeth<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">No matter the cause of missing teeth, they must be replaced &#8212; and not just for cosmetic reasons. When a smile experiences tooth loss, the jawbone starts to slowly disintegrate, resulting in a changing mouth shape and even more missing teeth later on. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tooth loss can damage self-confidence and inhibit your ability to eat and speak with ease. Learn how <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.princealbertdental.com\/dental-implants.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">dental implants<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> are the best option for tooth replacement &#8212; the only thing that gives you back your missing tooth and its root.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Problems with Sleep<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you experience daytime fatigue, confusion or irritability due to poor sleep, you could be suffering from a condition known as sleep apnea. It\u2019s incredibly common for adults these days, but it all too often goes un- or misdiagnosed. Unfortunately, left untreated, sleep apnea can lead to serious heart problems and even premature death. If you suspect you or a loved one are suffering from the condition, don\u2019t wait to seek a diagnosis and treatment from your dentist immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You Can Count On Your Dentist in Prince Albert<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Maintain your oral health with regular visits to your dentist, and you\u2019ll be strengthening your overall wellbeing, too. Dr. Janzen, Dr. Gogolinski and the whole team are here to help you thrive with a healthy smile.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.princealbertdental.com\/schedule-an-appointment.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Schedule your appointment today!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It may sound surprising, but your dentist in Prince Albert is interested in more than your oral health.
