Your Daily Wellness Tip
Up to date with health checkups? Don't forget your teeth!
Did you get regular dental checkups as a child? How about now? Keeping teeth and gums in good shape is not just for kids—and the benefits of doing so may reach far beyond your smile. Gum disease, a bacterial infection of the tissues that hold teeth in place, gets more common as we age, with an estimated 50 percent of adults over 30 suffering from some form of it. And as many as 64 percent of older adults have periodontitis, an advanced form of gum disease can lead to the loss of teeth, tissue, and bone. Unfortunately, it doesn't stop there: gum disease has been linked to high blood pressure, heart disease, and Alzheimer's. The good news? Gum disease can be treated—and even reversed if it's caught early. Don't ignore symptoms like swollen, red, bleeding, or receding gums, loose teeth, or changes in the way your teeth fit together. Be sure you're getting regular checkups with a dentist, brushing teeth twice a day, and flossing daily. Encourage your family to do the same, especially the eldest members.
