How Oral Health Affects the Body

1. Gum Disease & Heart Disease
   Bacteria from infected gums can enter your bloodstream, leading to inflammation and increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.
   
   
2. Oral Health & Diabetes
   People with gum disease often find it harder to control blood sugar levels. Likewise, uncontrolled diabetes can worsen gum infections.
   
   
3. Pregnancy & Oral Health
   Poor gum health has been linked to premature birth and low birth weight in babies. That’s why dental care is crucial for expecting mothers.
   
   
4. Respiratory Issues
   Oral bacteria can travel to the lungs, causing infections like pneumonia, especially in older adults.
   
   
5. Oral Health & Mental Health
   Chronic dental problems can lead to stress, anxiety, and even low self-esteem due to pain or appearance concerns.
