🫁 Your lungs may be affected by what happens in your mouth.
Your mouth is not isolated from the rest of your body. It is directly connected to the respiratory tract, and bacteria associated with periodontal disease can be aspirated into the lungs.
This oral–respiratory connection has been linked to conditions such as pneumonia and COPD.
So, taking care of your gums is not just about saving your teeth.
It may also be part of protecting your respiratory health.
🦷 Brush.
🦷 Maintain healthy gums.
🦷 Visit your dentist regularly.
🦷 Treat periodontal disease early.
Healthy gums. Healthy habits. Better overall health.
This , remember:
Your oral health matters beyond your mouth. 🫁
