I know of a person who has just spent over two weeks in the hospital. He was having chest pains and shortness of breath. After initial tests in the ER, they found that he had a blood clot in his lung. Then they dis covered that he had a bad blood infection and they said the source was come bad teeth. He was put on blood thinners and antibiotics thru an IV. He then had to have oral surgery where they cut his gums open and removed roots of seven dead teeth from his mouth.
Now I’m sure that’s not the full story because he has other health problems too and has been in a terrible car accident and hurt his back. In other words there are other things going on inside him besides his bad teeth.
It does make you wonder however if some of your medical problems could be linked to tooth disease. If you haven’t been to the dentist in a while it may be time to go and get a dental checkup.
