Now your dentist AND your cardiologist may high-five you for flossing. 🙌

Some research shows 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 a higher risk of stroke. The research is preliminary, but there’s really no downside to adding flossing to your healthy routine.

This Is What Gum Disease Looks Like Beneath the Gumline

Gum disease often begins with plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that accumulates along the teeth and gumline. When plaque is not removed effectively, it can harden into calculus (tartar), creating a rough surface that allows even more bacteria to thrive.

These bacteria trigger chronic inflammation in the gums. Over time, the gums begin to pull away from the teeth, forming periodontal pockets where harmful bacteria can accumulate below the gumline. Much of this damage occurs silently, often without significant pain.

As the disease progresses, the inflammation can destroy the periodontal ligament and the surrounding bone that support the teeth. This may eventually lead to gum recession, loose teeth, and tooth loss if left untreated.

The good news is that gum disease is largely preventable through effective daily oral hygiene and regular professional dental care.

If you have been in our office this summer, you have probably seen a new face at the reception desk.

We were sad to see Lorrie retire in June, but we’re so happy that we found Val! She fit in right away and has been a great addition to our team.

Val started out in dentistry in 1984 as a dental assistant and transitioned to the front desk 12 years ago. Her expertise on both sides makes her uniquely qualified to assist our patients.

Make sure you stop and say hi the next time you’re in!
