Periodontal disease and systemic health of the relationship between both

Periodontal disease can cause loose teeth, loss of general health been affected?

1. Cardio-cerebral vascular disease

Variable parts of the existence of a large number of periodontal pathogens, these bacteria can produce endotoxin and invasive blood, caused by changes in blood coagulation and platelet mechanism of degeneration, but also directly stimulate the blood vessels, leading to small artery spasm. If the coronary artery involvement, the occurrence of spastic contraction, coupled with the role of micro-thrombosis, it will cause the occurrence of acute myocardial infarction. Atherosclerosis and acute periodontitis is a risk factor for myocardial infarction. Infective endocarditis and periodontal disease as well.

##CONTINUE##2. Pregnancy

Many studies have confirmed that premature babies and low birth weight infants with their mothers on the risk of periodontitis. Therefore, women of childbearing age with periodontitis in the preparation of pre-pregnancy treatment of periodontal disease should be the first to control the inflammation, in order to ensure a healthy pregnancy and the fetus.

3. Diabetes

Diabetes and periodontal disease risk factors of each other. If poor blood sugar control, it is difficult to guarantee periodontal health; the other hand, does not control periodontal disease, the normal blood sugar levels difficult to achieve.

4. In addition, studies have shown that periodontal disease and gastrointestinal diseases and respiratory diseases as well.

Patients with periodontal disease in subgingival plaque contains a large number of pathogens, Helicobacter pylori and may be the reservoir of respiratory pathogens.

Therefore, we can see that the health effects of periodontal disease than in the mouth, periodontal disease should not be taken lightly of, symptoms should be treated in time.
