Brushing Teeth Every Day Keeps Killer Disease Away...
Dear Reader,
You do this every day... and now new research has found that brushing your teeth each day isn't just good for your smile, it might also reduce your chances of having a heart attack. Poor oral hygiene is linked to higher levels of risk for heart disease and low-grade inflammation. Over the last 20 years medicine has been increasingly interested in a link between dental disease (periodontal disease in particular) and heart disease.
The findings of the latest work in this area appear in the journal BMJ, and come as the result of an examination of more than 11,000 men and women who were part of the Scottish Health Survey, a national, population-based survey that examined lifestyle habits like level of activity, smoking status and oral health routine.
For the present work, researchers combined data from the 1995, 1998 and 2003 surveys of adults over 35 years old. Survey interviewers visited households and collected information on demographics and lifestyle factors; they measured height and weight and asked about activity. On a separate visit, nurses took the medical and family history as well as blood samples.
As part of the survey, the subjects were asked if they visited a dentist at least once every six months, every one to two years, rarely or never. They also supplied information on how often they brushed; twice a day, once a day or less than every day.
In the end, the analysis found that that:
- 62% of participants went to a dentist every six months... dentists reading this are smiling now.
- 71% brushed two times a day... more good news for the dentists.
After adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors (obesity, smoking, social class, family heart disease history), the team found that those who said they brushed less frequently had a 70% increased risk of heart disease. These subjects were also more likely to test positive for the typical bloodstream inflammatory markers... things like fibrinogen and C-reactive protein. The researchers suggest that systemic inflammation could be the underlying thing that links both oral health and heart health, though more work is needed to be sure.
Not taking care of your teeth is the major cause of periodontal disease, a chronic infection of the tissues around the teeth. The gum infections add to the inflammatory burden on a person, thus increasing cardiovascular risks.
Richard Watt, DDS of University College London believes that the results confirm and further strengthen the association between oral hygiene and the risk of heart disease. This is hardly a shock to most experts. Even more exciting to researchers is that the change to make is a simple, easy one... brush more often, don't neglect your teeth.
Your dentist, and the American Dental Association, will tell you that proper brushing is the best way to clean both your teeth and gums. Here are the basics for a quick reminder:
- Use a toothbrush with soft, nylon, rounded bristles.
- Place the bristles along the gumline at a 45-degree angle so that they touch both the tooth and the gum. Gently brush the outer surfaces of two to three teeth at a time using a vibrating back and forth motion, then move on to the next few teeth and repeat.

Brushing Teeth Every Day Keeps Killer Disease Away... Continued...
- Use the same 45-degree angle and motions (back and forth, and rolling) to cover
all the tooth surfaces.
- Tilt the brush vertically behind the front teeth; make a few up and down motions.
- Place the brush against the biting surface of the teeth and use a back and
forth scrubbing motion.
- Brush your tongue from back to front.
Remember, you'll want to get a new toothbrush every three to four months to be
sure its not harboring bacteria that can cause periodontal disease as well as
colds and flu.
To your good health,
