Alzheimers Disease

Scientists have recently been examining the link between gum disease and Alzheimer’s disease.

They looked at the brain tissue of patients suffering from Alzheimer’s and in the cases submitted they found oral bacteria associated with gum disease, whereas brain samples from healthy individuals had no such bacteria. No causal link has been proved but the findings are quite compelling. It’s another reason to look after your mouth, for better health in the long-term.
