The Relationship Between Oral and General Health<\/h2>\n

Your body, including your mouth, is filled with bacteria. Most of this bacteria is fairly harmless. However, without proper dental care, more dangerous bacteria can build up in your mouth and enter your respiratory or digestive system.<\/p>\n

Specifically, poor oral health can lead to the growth of bacteria that causes pneumonia or endocarditis. There may even be a link between plaque growth and cardiovascular disease. Chronic gum disease may also make it harder to control your diabetes.

\n

The Proper Frequency of Dental Care<\/h2>\n

Unfortunately, many people still do not visit a general dentist in Jacksonville as often as they should. The Florida Department of Health recently found that only 65.6 percent of individuals in Duval County visited a dental clinic or dentist within the past year.<\/p>\n

In order to keep both your mouth and your body healthy, you should get regular cleanings. For most individuals, this means two dental appointments per year. You should also get mouth X-rays every year to check for early signs of cavities. You should also address any cavities or other pain complaints as soon as possible.
