Decay of teeth

• As the mouth is a passage way to the body, many
  bacteria thrive to live within the mouth and grow
  from therein. Without proper hygiene and good
  nutrition it is almost impossible to contain
  harmful bacteria to grow. This could result in
  decay of the teeth and develop cavities and
  severe gum diseases. The condition could affect
  other parts of the body slowly resulting in
  decrease in immunity.

Diabetes control

• According to renowned dentist in Toronto
  belonging to www.carolwaldmandentistry.ca accept
  the fact that oral diseases can lead to diabetes.
  Although there is no direct connection between
  the two, research indicates that people who do
  not care for their mouth cannot control the blood
  sugar levels even when suggested by the doctor.
  Further more if there is no proper oral care
  among diabetic patients, periodontitis and
  gingivitis can develop which lessens immunity
  drastically.

Heart concerns

  hazardous and can extend to the heart resulting
  in clogged arteries and a possible stroke.
  Although dentists Toronto do not claim this fact
  officially, but research suggests that improper
  brushing and flossing can be the cause of some
  serious cardiovascular diseases. It is
  fascinating to know that bacteria can enter the
  bloodstream and thereby to the heart through the
  gums where there is direct connection between
  bloodstreams and the mouth.

  tartar due to tooth decays and gum diseases, the
  region surrounding the jaw bones can get
  drastically weaker. This could result in the
  occurrence of osteoporosis which further weakens
  or brittles the bones to a harmful extent.
