PART OF MEN’S HEALTH MONTH
November is Men’s Health Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about unique health issues men face. While the focus often leans toward heart health, mental well-being, and cancer prevention, oral health gets frequently overlooked. However, it’s essential to understand that oral health is closely connected to many leading health concerns men should be aware of, such as heart attacks and strokes. Poor oral health doesn’t just result in cavities and gum disease; it can also affect your overall well-being. Inflammation in the gums can contribute to inflammation in other body parts, a known risk factor for heart disease. Bacteria from the mouth can also enter the bloodstream and cause infection in other body parts. One of the most significant concerns is the link between poor oral health and cardiovascular diseases. The bacteria in your mouth that cause gum disease can enter the bloodstream and attach to fatty plaque in the heart’s blood vessels, potentially leading to the formation of clots. Inflammation in the
mouth may also increase inflammation throughout the body, including in the arteries, which can increase the risk of a heart attack.
Given these connections, men should get regular dental check-ups so oral health issues do not escalate into more severe problems.
