There is a strong correlation between a healthy mouth and overall health! When you take care of your mouth, you take care of your overall health. Recent studies have shown meaningful relationships between periodontal disease and other illnesses. Bacteria that cause gum disease and periodontal bone loss are secondary factors for other illnesses such as cardiovascular disease, adult diabetes and other autoimmune diseases.
