Did you know that bleeding gums may be telling you more than just something about your teeth? They could also be a warning sign for your heart.

Periodontal disease, also called gum disease, is a chronic bacterial infection that causes inflammation in your mouth. When left untreated, those bacteria and inflammatory chemicals can enter your bloodstream.

Research has found that people with gum disease are more likely to develop heart disease, suffer a heart attack, or experience a stroke. While gum disease doesn't directly cause heart disease, the ongoing inflammation may increase your risk.

The good news? Gum disease is often preventable and treatable.

Brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and keeping up with regular dental cleanings can protect more than your smile—they may also support your overall health.

Your mouth is connected to the rest of your body. If your gums bleed when you brush or floss, don't ignore it. Schedule a periodontal evaluation and take an important step toward protecting both your smile and your heart.
