Teeth cleaning said to help reduce risk of heart disease

Amazing!

Taiwanese who take good care of their teeth are also probably more likely to also take care of their overall health, which is what likely actually lowers their risk for heart attack and stroke.

i dont know about that. the japanese dont go in for scaling and polishing as often as the americans in general. yet the americans suffer more heart attacks. I get my teeth scaled 4 times a year and I'lll probably die of a heart attack. but i do recommend a scaling at least twice a year, especially as you get up in age. that ojiichan/obaachan gingivitis breath is horrible. I'm never getting that. Homie just aint going out like that. i want my wife and i to be able to enjoy wet kisses til we are dead.

Wow, it almost makes sense to knock all your teeth out.

Headline, "Knocking out all you teeth will reduce the chance for heart attack!" News at eleven.

Scaling hurts but a necessary evil. Just wrote a note at my desk reminding me to set an appointment.

Dental professionals will be very happy after seeing that article. That study lacks the credility. There are many elderly survived more than 100 years without teeth such as Okinawa ceturians! The root cause of heart problem was unhealty diet and life style. If someone who will consume low fat, low salt diet and live in stress and pollution free enviroment will have lower risks for heart decease.

North Americans spent fortune for their teeth for both hygene and beauty. However their life expetancy are lower than Japan. Due to the harsh weather and work commitment, they consume more red meat, high calory food and alcohol. Therefore their hearts are blocked by thick layer of fat and they got more heart attacks.
