Inadequate dental care increases the risk of cancer in the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx and esophagus

Poor oral hygiene can not only lead to gingivitis/gum bleeding and tooth loss, but the bacteria can also enter the bloodstream through the oral cavity, causing inflammation in various parts of the body.

These bacteria can also form clots in the bloodstream, which, if they reach the brain, can lead to Alzheimer’s disease and stroke.
