“We aimed to determine which oral hygiene behavior — dental flossing, brushing or regular dentist visits — has the greatest impact on stroke prevention.”
Some 6,000 peoples’ home dental routines were recorded in the study.
Acording the study, 4,092 had not suffered a str0ke, and 4,050 had not been diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat known as atrial fibrillation.
Participants were examined about their health history, including high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking, body mass index, education, regular brushing and dentist visits.
“Oral health behaviors are linked to inflammation and artery hardening. Flossing may reduce stroke risk by lowering oral infections and inflammation and encouraging other healthy habits,” Sen said.
“Many people have expressed that dental care is costly.”
“Flossing is a healthy habit that is easy to adopt, affordable and accessible everywhere.”
