Is there a link between oral health and overall health?
A. Your oral health is an important part of your overall health. Pain, infection and even the appearance of your teeth and mouth can affect the quality of life you lead. Research has shown that there may be a link between your oral health and other health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease and stroke amongst others. While research is still being conducted on the relationship of a healthy mouth and a healthy body, studies have shown that adding LISTERINE® antiseptic mouthwash to your oral hygiene routine can help reduce and prevent plaque and gingivitis more than brushing alone.
