Today we\u2019d like to talk about another connection between oral and overall health. In this case, it has to do with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2013\/03\/17\/stress-inflammation-dwelling-ruminating_n_2876394.html\">impact<\/a> that stress can have.<\/p>\n<p>Today, more than at any other point, our culture is driven by work and by staying plugged in. Regardless of where your stress comes from, though, it can contribute to inflammation in the body, including in your smile.<\/p>\n<p>Inflammation is one of the body\u2019s immune responses. As a natural response, it can do good work. But too much stress can interfere with the body\u2019s ability to properly regulate inflammation. As a result, inflammation can actually become like a weapon the body uses against itself. That has consequences for your overall health, which includes your oral health. In 2012, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.knowyourteeth.com\/infobites\/abc\/article\/?abc=G&amp;iid=324&amp;aid=1249\">ADG reported<\/a> that a definite link between stress and dental health exists. In their research, they point to problems with the immune system as a cause.<\/p>\n<p>What this means for our <strong>Canton, MI<\/strong> patients is that following a good oral health routine is important. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.robisondentalgroup.com\/meet-the-dentists.html\">Dr. Robison<\/a> recommends a regular routine of brushing twice a day, flossing at least once, and rinsing with an antibacterial or fluoride mouthwash. You should also visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.robisondentalgroup.com\/\">Robison Dental Group<\/a> twice a year, or about every six months.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.robisondentalgroup.com\/contact-us.html\">Call us today<\/a> to schedule an appointment.
