Is there any connection between dental plaque and heart blockage?

Ans: Hello Saisuresh
Studies have shown that the bacteria which cause gum infections can travel through the bloodstream and infect the heart valves.
So yes, if your oral hygiene is poor you stand the risk of getting cardiac complications.
This is why regular dental check ups are important even if you have no bothersome signs or symptoms

Ans: Hello Ajay
If you've had a swelling for last 6 months and it's not responding to medication you need to go for further investigations like xrays and/or biopsy. I'm sure your dentist can guide you in this matter.
And please stop using tobacco in any form before it causes any more damage.

My friend who has type2 diabetes has habit of chewing tobacco. Does it have any effect? He takes insulin injections and consumes sugarless teas. Staple food is Chapati.

Ans: Tobacco use can raise your blood glucose (sugar) and reduce your body's ability to use insulin, making it harder to control your diabetes. Even one cigarette, e-cigarette or small amount of chewing tobacco is harmful.
