M Toni Lones hasn't added a story.
My sister Sally really needs all of her teeth pulled & dentures, all of her teeth are decayed & broken, the nerves and the insides of her teeth are all showing & its really painful & not healthy at all. Bad teeth can cause all kinds of medical problems with your heart, ammune system, etc. She also has problems eating properly because she has nothing left of what teeth she does have. I am not going to post a pic because it is really gross looking and I do not want to embarrass her! Please donate to help my sister get her smile back & to get back to being healthy and happy! Thank you Toni
Here's something I found on the affects bad teeth have on your body!
Bad Teeth
Bad teeth are a general term for all types of
tooth problems. Some teeth problems are fractured or cracked teeth,
impacted wisdom tooth, cavities, abscess or infected teeth,
periodontitis, and temporomandibular joint syndrome (TMJ syndrome).
All of these types of teeth problems may lead to much more complicate conditions.
Just like most diseases and infections, if a teeth problem is
left untreated, there is a big chance that it would lead to
complications. An infection can spread out to other areas throughout
the body. And not only does the infection harm your body physically,
it can also affect your mood. It affects your disposition. Teeth
problems can lead to depression and low self-esteem. The pain can also
make you more irritable or hot-headed. And this negative vibe can make
you more susceptible to other health problems.
Health problems due to teeth problems
The most common
disease brought about by teeth problem is heart disease. It may seem
odd that a bad tooth can lead to a cardiovascular problem but it is
true. One heart problem that can be brought about by a bad tooth is a
disease called subacute bacterial endocarditis. This disease is a
severe infection of the heart lining, wherein the bacteria collect at
a site in the heart that has been previously damaged. The bacteria
come from the outside and enter the body through an opening, such as a
fractured tooth or a cavity.
When the bacteria have entered into the body through your bad
teeth, it flows through blood stream and enters the heart.
Another cardiovascular problem caused by bad teeth is stroke.
Periodontal disease can cause stroke and other heart problems. And
with pregnant women, it can also lead to giving birth to low weight
babies. Periodontal disease, also known as periodontits or gum
disease, is an infection of the gums, the tissues and the bones that
support the teeth.
The spread of a tooth infection is not only limited to the
heart. Other area of the body can be affected. The brain may also be
infected by the bacteria thriving in your bad teeth. Once these
bacteria enter the blood stream, there is no telling on the organs,
glands, and tissues that can contact the pathogen.
Another problem due to bad teeth is due to impacted wisdom
teeth. An impacted wisdom tooth is when the wisdom tooth grows lying
down, pushing the other teeth. And it can make your thyroid
underactive if left untreated for years. It can also weaken your jaw.
There are a lot of other health problems that can be brought
about by bad teeth. And bad teeth effects are not limited to the
physical effects. It also affects you psychologically. Bad teeth can
cause depression. They can leave you feeling even worse than you
should be.
