A new study has shown that tooth infections could lead to heart disease!
The study, carried out by the University of Helsinki’s Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Diseases (in conjunction with the Heart and Lung Centre at Helsinki University Hospital), demonstrates how an infection of the root tip of a tooth can increase the chance of developing coronary artery disease.
Hidden dental root tip infections are extremely commonplace, and even those that do not show symptoms could lead to more serious issues down the line. One in four suffers from these infections in Finland alone, with most only discovered by chance thanks to unrelated x-rays.
