Healthy Habits and Mouth/Body Connection

2

Things are not always the way they seem…

Making the connection

• Link between oral health and total body health
• Link between what we eat and drink and our mouth/body

health

• Link between diabetes and oral health
• Link between your heart and oral health
• Do we NEED teeth?

Can you die from a cavity?

Top 8 leading causes of death in the U.S.

• Heart disease
• Cancer
• Chronic lower respiratory disease
• Accidents
• Stroke
• Alzheimer’s disease
• Diabetes (Type 1) 5%, (Type 2) 90 – 95%
• Influenza and pneumonia

Link between oral health and total body health

• It’s important to see a dentist regularly, even if you have

wonderful home care

• The oral cavity will show signs and symptoms of deficiencies in

your body currently and during tooth development. Some of these include lack of:

− Vitamin K − Iron − Vitamin C − Vitamin B (complex) − Vitamin A − Protein

Gum disease linked to total body health

“A growing body of evidence has linked

• ral health, particularly periodontal

(gum) disease, to several chronic diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, and

• stroke. In pregnant women, poor oral

health has also been associated with premature births and low birth weight”

– HealthyPeople.gov

Severe periodontal disease

Link between oral health and total body health

• Cancer — During your dental exam, your dentist should give you an oral cancer screening to help

detect lumps or other changes in your throat, neck, jaw, skin or thyroid

• Heart disease — If you have moderate to advanced gum disease, you’re more likely to have

cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and stroke, than someone with healthy gums. Studies have not shown that one condition causes the other, but the two conditions share many risk factors, such as smoking, poor diet and diabetes.

• Kidney disease — Chronic bad breath, an unpleasant taste in your mouth and dry mouth are often

signs of this condition. When the kidneys don’t function properly, the by-products of incomplete protein breakdown are released, causing an unpleasant taste or mouth odor.

• Anxiety — Did you know that anxiety can affect your oral health? Stress affects the immune system,

reducing your body’s defense against the bacteria that can lead to gum infection.

• Other medical conditions that your dentist may detect include: thyroid problems, high blood

pressure, asthma, sleep and breathing disorders, skin rashes, bruxism (teeth grinding), HIV, tuberculosis, drug abuse, anorexia, digestive disorders and upper respiratory problems

• Remember: Giving your mouth the same attention you give the rest of your body can really pay off in

the long run. Make an appointment with your dentist today. www.deltadentalins.com/oral_health/overall_health.html

Link between diabetes and oral health

• Signs and symptoms in oral cavity can contribute to a diagnoses
• f diabetes

− Gingivitis − Mild to severe periodontal disease

• Chronic infection of oral tissues contributes to uncontrollable

blood glucose levels

− Causing illness and affecting organs and tissues

Link between diabetes and oral health

There are more bacteria in your mouth right now than there are people on earth. If those germs settle into your gums, you've got gum disease. Unfortunately, if you have diabetes, you are at higher risk for gum problems. Poor blood glucose control makes gum problems more likely. American Diabetes Association www.diabetes.org/?loc=bb-dorg

Treatment of gum disease improves glycemic control by 10 – 20%

Good habits — let’s get started!

My recipe for oral health habits

• Brush two times a day, using a mechanical or manual toothbrush
• Use toothpaste with fluoride
• Floss once a day
• Clean your tongue
• Use an antibacterial mouth rinse with fluoride (no alcohol)
• Use picks or flossers (Keep them EVERYWHERE)
• Use xylitol products
• Drink water, and swish with water
• Extra info for those with chronic canker or cold sores (sodium lauryl sulfate)
• Wear a sports guard

How’s my oral health?

• Take a self assessment to see if you are

at risk for any of the following diseases:

− Tooth decay − Gum disease − Oral cancer

• Risk score vs. disease score
• Breakout session

Next steps

• Visit the Delta Dental of Oregon booth

to take your self assessment

− Delta Dental of Oregon members may receive extra dental benefits to help prevent them from developing oral diseases

• Practice healthy habits to sustain and

improve your oral health
