Why Regular Dental Checkups Matter and How Oral Health Affects Your Whole Body
Regular dental checkups support long term health. Oral issues influence more than teeth. Gum inflammation, infections, bite problems and misalignment affect the entire body. Preventive care lowers risks linked to heart disease, diabetes, headaches, jaw tension and digestive discomfort.
Why oral health affects overall wellbeing
Inflamed gums increase inflammatory markers throughout the body. Untreated gum disease raises risks linked to heart disease and diabetes. Oral infections enter the bloodstream. Misaligned teeth influence chewing, jaw comfort and posture.
