Connecting Oral Health & Heart Health

By: Candace McIntyre, RDH

This time of year is so exciting when the snow melts and vegetation starts to appear. One thing our family loves to do is grow our own veggies each summer. The size of garden doesn’t matter, but the benefits of getting additional vegetables into our diet can help overall health as well as oral health. My youngest son is not a fan of vegetables, but this same little man was often found in our pea patch and eating fresh carrots from the garden last summer, which has led to an overall increase in his veggie intake. We will be planting another garden very soon so we can continue this trend of increasing our intake of healthy foods to improve our oral and overall health.

Dental hygienists want to remind everyone not to overlook their oral health when seeking to improve their physical well-being.

According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, 80% of cases of premature heart disease and stroke are preventable through healthy living, eating, and daily habits. While quitting smoking and enjoying foods rich in vitamins A, C, and D are well-known strategies for reducing risks, developing a good daily oral care routine is also important. As Canadian Dental Hygienists Association (CDHA) President Anne Caissie explains, “There are millions of bacteria in the mouth. Poor oral hygiene allows these bacteria to grow and spread into the bloodstream, where they may contribute to clogged arteries. Just as bad, if these bacteria reach your heart, they can cause a serious infection called endocarditis.”

Dental hygienists in Canada, essential primary health care providers, can help you understand the connections between oral and heart health.

Help to protect your oral and overall health by following five simple steps:

1. Brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes with a fluoride toothpaste.

2. Clean between the teeth and rinse with an antibacterial mouth-rinse daily.

3. Eat healthy foods and avoid sugary treats.

4. Eliminate tobacco use.

5. Visit your dental hygienist regularly.

One of the things that I am seeing in my practice is the growing popularity of “do it yourself” packages. I have seen fill-in-theblank wills that are terrible, and will likely cause more problems for the estate than if there was no will at all. I have successfully challenged and overturned, fill-in-theblank separation agreements, which one judge described as “not worth the paper it was written on”.

There is no shortage of unscrupulous vendors online willing to sell you these “magical” documents. Many of them are not specific to Ontario, some are not even Canadian and do not comply with statutes like the Family Law Act. No one wants to have to retain a lawyer. I think we are more dreaded than the dentist chair (no offense to dentists). However, I have seen many cases where people ended up spending more money trying to untangle the mess resulting from these types of agreements than what they would have spent if they had simply obtained the services of a professional to draft a proper document.

It is not just the drafting of the document itself that is important. You could have a beautifully composed will, but do you know how to properly execute a will? It is kind of important.

Like most things in life, you get what you pay for.
