Inflammation from plaque in the gums is essentially a chronic wound that can pour bacteria into the bloodstream, which has been shown to result in low birth weight and preterm labor.

Protect your brain from oral bacteria due to direct blood flow

There are no valves in the blood vessels connecting your mouth to your brain, allowing bacteria from oral infections to flow directly up to the brain.

Stop daytime mouth breathing to protect tooth enamel

Constantly breathing through your mouth during the day is a major issue because it dries out saliva, which is the natural cleanser that washes away acid and protects tooth enamel.
