Dentifrice: Oral Health, Systemic Health - Good, Bad & Unknown

Oral and systemic health are closely interconnected. Maintaining good oral hygiene through the use of dentifrices helps reduce plaque accumulation, prevent dental caries, control gingivitis, and limit the growth of harmful bacteria. Poor oral health, particularly periodontal disease, has been associated with various systemic conditions, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and reduced quality of life. Effective plaque control and gum care not only support healthy teeth and oral tissues but may also contribute to overall well-being. The evidence underscores the importance of oral hygiene as a key component of preventive healthcare, reinforcing the role of a healthy mouth in supporting overall health.
