The formation of tooth enamel is less than perfect (ename hypoplasia) may also occur in certain cases. This situation will also make the teeth become sensitive.

"The bacteria that sneak into the blood vessels will lead to blood clots that eventually could potentially clog the blood supply to the heart and brain," says Professor of Oral Microbiology, Howard Jenkinson.
These results reinforce previous studies penelitin in Scotland of more 11 thousand adults. The study found that people with poor oral health 70 percent higher risk of heart disease. The link between gum disease and heart disease is published in the British Medical Journal.
