Periodontal Disease, Gum Disease, Gum Infections - Linked to
Learn how hidden bacteria in teeth cause side effects that can
endanger your life. Discover how germs trapped in teeth and
tonsils mutate and metastasize like cancer cells and how these
bacteria migrate to heart, kidney, eyes, brain, arthritic joints
and countless other body tissues. This article is part of Dr.
George Meinig's, DDS, FACD, research information of the
extensive and investigative research of Dr. Weston Price's DDS,
FACD, research work.
Link between Chronic Respiratory Disease and Periodontal Disease
According to Daily University Science News, The message
delivered in a study just published in the journal of
Periodontology conducted by oral biologists from the University
at Buffalo. The researchers found an association between chronic
respiratory disease and periodontal disease in an analysis of
data from a large national database, the Third National Health
and Nutrition Examination Survey, known as NHANES III.
Frank Scannapieco, D.m.D.,ph.D., associate professor of oral
biology in UB,s School of Dental Medicine and lead author of the
study, said the mechanism linking oral health and lung disease
isn't clear, but that bacteria in the mouth likely are to blame.
"Accumulation of disease-causing organisms associated with gum
disease may increase for serious lower-respiratory-tract
infection in susceptible subjects", said Scannapieco.
"It is possible that bacteria that normally stick to the teeth
are sloughed into the saliva and may be breathed into the upper
airways, changing that environment and paving the way for other
germs to infect the lower airways. Oral conditions likely work
together with the factors, such as smoking, environmental
pollutants, allergies and genetics to make existing lung
problems worse"
Scannapieco's earlier work with
pneumonia in hospitalized
patients suggested a potential association between respiratory
diseases and poor oral health, and led him to investigate
whether such a relationship exists in the general population.
For the analysis, he used data from 13,792 participants in
NHANES III who were at least 20 years old and had at least six
natural teeth.
Questionnaires completed by participants included items about
their history of respiratory disease. The physical examination
measured each person's forced expiratory volume (FEV1), or how
much air a person can blow out in one second, a measure of lung
health and function. A dental examination assessed the loss of
gum attachment supporting the teeth, amount of gum bleeding,
number of cavities and number of teeth.
Gum Disease and Respiratory Function
Analyzing these two sets of data for a relationship, the
researchers found that lung function appeared to diminish as the
amount of gum- attachment loss increased. Results also showed a
decline in respiratory function as oral health worsened.
"We aren't saying that if you don't brush, you'll develop lung
disease," said Scannapieco. "We're saying that if you already
have lung disease, taking care of your teeth and gums is
especially important. It's possible that improved oral health is
one factor that may help prevent progression of this disease,
which is responsible for 2.2 million dealths a year worldwide."
