Dental problems and health issues
Uncategorized
We all know everything is related. Like that some dental problems are closely related to health issues.
Check the database and get self checked to prevent the future problems.
Anaemia
Gums that appear light pink or almost white can indicate a very low iron level, which is an indicator of Anaemia.
Antidepressant Use
The dry mouth that comes from taking antidepressants can create a problem with increased cavities in your teeth.
Stress
When you are stressed, your body creates more cortisol, which is the main cause of inflammation. During stressful times, gum and tooth problems are likely to worsen. Not only is the risk of inflammation greater, but we also tend to neglect things like our teeth when stressed.
Diabetes
One of the many side-effects of this disease is the repeated creation of abscesses on the teeth roots and sometimes between teeth. This is often one of the earliest signs of diabetes.
Autoimmune disorders
Many times these disorders can cause either red or white spots in the mouth. While the spots themselves are easy to treat, if left untreated, they can turn into ulcers. These ulcers are extremely painful and difficult to treat.
Heart disease
This is the big one. The same bacteria that cause gum disease also causes heart problems by clogging the major arteries feeding the heart. It is very likely that a person with long-term gum disease may also have heart trouble.
