Happy National Gum Care Month! Healthy gums support and protect your teeth, while unhealthy gums can lead to tooth loss.
Recognizing when your gums are unhealthy and seeking treatment from your dentist early on can make a lot of difference in your dental and overall health, since the early stage of gum disease (gingivitis) can usually be reversed by a professional dental cleaning followed by daily brushing and cleaning between your teeth. Common signs of gingivitis include bleeding, redness and swelling. Learn more at MouthHealthy.org/gumdisease

Now your dentist AND your cardiologist may have a reason to high-five you for flossing. 🙌

According to research from the International Stroke Conference 2025, people who flossed at least once a week had a lower risk for strokes caused by blood clots coming from the heart. They also had a lower risk for atrial fibrillation, or AFib, an irregular heart rhythm that can lead to a stroke.

Flossing can help prevent gum disease and oral infections. These are linked to inflammation, which may contribute to hardened arteries and an increased risk of stroke. The research is still preliminary, but there’s really no downside to adding flossing at least once a week to your healthy routine.

Sugar isn’t the only dietary factor that can damage your smile. Highly acidic foods and drinks wear away your teeth’s protective enamel, opening the door for bacteria that can cause cavities. To protect your teeth, eat nutritious acidic foods (like tomatoes or citrus fruits) as part of a meal while limiting or avoiding acidic beverages (like soft drinks and citrus-flavored juices).
