Did you know that wearing dentures could potentially save your life?
Recent research has uncovered a fascinating link between denture use and cardiovascular health. This blog dives into a groundbreaking study that reveals how maintaining good oral health with dentures can significantly impact your overall well-being.
Let’s dive into the key findings and what they mean for you.
Study Overview:
Published in the Journal of Dentistry in November 2022, this study followed 1,735 edentulous older adults over 27 years to explore the relationship between denture use and cardiovascular health.
Researchers aimed to determine if wearing dentures could modify the association between cardiovascular health profiles and mortality risk among edentulous elderly.
Key Findings:
- Denture wearers had a lower mortality risk: Edentulous patients with ideal cardiovascular health who wore dentures had a significantly lower risk of death compared to those who did not wear dentures.
- Improved oral function leads to better health: Wearing dentures improved oral functions like chewing and speaking, which in turn promoted better overall health.
- Potential reduction in heart disease mortality: The study found that denture wearers had a lower risk of dying from heart disease.
