People who fail to brush their teeth twice a day are putting themselves at risk of heart disease, research suggests.

The Scottish study of more than 11,000 adults backs previous research linking gum disease with heart problems.

The researchers said more work is needed to confirm if poor oral health directly causes heart disease or is a marker of risk.

A charity added that oral hygiene was just one factor in good heart health.

It is known that inflammation in the body, including in the mouth and gums, has an important role in the build up of clogged arteries, which can lead to a heart attack.

But this is the first time that researchers have looked at whether the frequency of teeth brushing has any bearing on the risk of developing heart disease.

I brush my dentures once in a day?

He he, sa wala nay ngipon, massage your gums twice a day na lang tingali...

kalood ba pud ning dli ta mag-toothbrush oi hehehe

sa ato pa, kadtong naay mga heart disease, panagsa ra na sila mag toothbrush.. 

Wa lang ta kahibawo, basin dili lang kay panagsa, basin dili jud mag-toothbrush...
