ORAL BACTERIA CAN TRAVEL TO THE HEART 🫀

Scientists have discovered something shocking — bacteria commonly found in dental plaque have been detected inside the arteries and even heart tissue of patients who suffered heart attacks.

How does this happen?
When gums are inflamed or diseased, bacteria can slip into the bloodstream through tiny breaks in gum tissue. Once in circulation, they may contribute to inflammation in blood vessels, accelerating cardiovascular damage.

This doesn’t mean oral bacteria directly cause heart disease, but their presence shows how strongly the mouth and heart are connected. Ignoring gum health could silently fuel risks far beyond the mouth.

Current research suggests that keeping gums healthy through regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings isn’t just about saving teeth — it could also help protect the heart.

TMJ symptoms can include jaw pain, difficulty chewing, clicking or popping sounds in the jaw, headaches, earaches, and neck pain. These symptoms can vary in intensity and may be accompanied by jaw stiffness or locking, and a change in how the upper and lower teeth fit together.

Common TMJ Symptoms:

Jaw Pain: Pain or tenderness in the jaw joint, which can be dull, aching, or sharp.
Difficulty Chewing: Pain or discomfort while chewing, or difficulty opening or closing the mouth.

Jaw Sounds: Clicking, popping, or grating sounds when opening or closing the mouth.
Headaches: Especially in the temples, under the eyes, or at the sides of the lower jaw.
Earaches: Pain or discomfort in or around the ear.
Neck and Shoulder Pain: Pain or stiffness in the neck and shoulder area.

Jaw Locking: The jaw may lock in an open or closed position, making it difficult to move.
Changes in Bite: A noticeable difference in how the upper and lower teeth fit together.
Other Symptoms: Some people experience tooth pain, dizziness, or ringing in the ears (tinnitus).

Gum and Tooth Damage: The unsupervised force applied by DIY devices can lead to weakened gums, loosened teeth, and in severe cases, tooth loss. Infection Risk: Non-sterile materials and improper fitting are common in DIY braces, significantly increasing the risk of infection and other oral health issues.

Prevention is better than cure.
Please visit your dentist every 6 months 🦷

Dentist: “Mommy, your child needs complete oral rehab. We have to save whatever we can save and we need to let go of the hopeless ones. We’ll do pulp treatment and crowns, restorations, extractions and fabrication of ortho maintainers later on. We suggest that the child be treated under sedation. The cost would be around Php1xx,### (+)

Mommy: “Ang mahal naman doc. Di ba pwede pastahan na lang?”

D: Hindi na po kaya, Mommy. These are the most practical and ethical solutions po for the case of **** (patient’s name).”

M: “Ba’t naman ganun kamahal? Yung murang option lang doc, masyado naman po yan. Wala po bang way para mas makamura?”

Dentist: “Meron po. But it should’ve been done 2 years ago; nung inadvise ko po kayo to get sealant and fluoride treatment for your child.” (Shows dental record with parent’s sign on refusal to get treatment)

Mom: …..

📌 Parents should stop blaming doctors for the fees incurred by their negligence and noncompliance.

Stop going around bashing and posting online about doctors saying “pera-pera lang mga doctor at dentista na yan” while you tap on your latest iPhone.

You know, you may look rich but you’re cheap and irresponsible for flexing your stuff while your kid suffers chronic dental abscess and can’t even bite a bread.
REAL TALK.

So the next time your doctor advises you to take preventive treatments, know that comes with it is genuine concern for your health and for your pocket.

Just a friendly reminder.
