š¦ When plaque accumulates, it becomes a reservoir of harmful bacteria. In periodontitis (Gum disease), these bacteria, along with inflammatory mediators, can enter the bloodstream through bleeding gums.
Once in circulation, they can: š“ Trigger systemic inflammation ā contributing to atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries) ā ļø Promote arterial plaque buildup ā increasing the risk of heart attack or stroke š Elevate C-reactive protein (CRP) ā a key marker linked to cardiovascular disease š§¬ Cause endothelial dysfunction ā impairing the normal function of blood vessels
Clinical studies have consistently shown that chronic periodontitis is associated with: ā”ļø Increased cardiovascular risk ā”ļø Worsening of diabetes control ā”ļø Higher risk of cerebrovascular events
Protecting your gums means protecting your heart. Donāt ignore bleeding gums ā your mouth could be signaling something much bigger.
