En regardant la télé

Ayez toujours sous la main sur une petite table près de votre fauteuil préféré de la soie dentaire. C' est tellement important et on oublie trop souvent.
Pendant que vous relaxez en regardant votre émission préférée, passer votre soie dentaire. C'est non seulement bon pour vos dents mais aussi pour éviter de l'inflammation à vos gencives ce qui pourrait selon des études être aussi néfaste pour vos artères et la santé de votre coeur.
On dit que si vous voulez prolonger votre vie, un des moyens est d'utiliser tous les jours votre soie dentaire.

"These studies show that the presence of periodontal diseases, diseases most common in people with tooth loss, actually affects longevity. The best of these studies done at Emory University with the Centers for Disease Control, indicated that people with gingivitis and periodontitis have a mortality rate that is 23 percent to 46 percent higher than those who don't... why? They are linked to increased rates of cardiovascular disease and stroke, as well as to an increase in mortality from other causes, such as infections. '

On flossing, the book states that, "Flossing your teeth daily can make your arteries younger. The probable reason: Flossing helps keep your immune system young... the same bacteria that cause periodontal disease also trigger an immune response, inflammation, that causes the arteries to swell. The swelling of the arterial walls results in a constriction of blood flow that can lead to a higher incidence of cardiovascular disease. Other studies have shown that periodontal disease leads to a higher white blood cell count, which is an indicator that the immune system is under increased stress.... Poor oral hygiene and particularly increased tooth loss are important indicators of your risk. The fewer teeth you have, the greater your risk of gum infections."
