Dr Ellie is a highly experienced dentist and a leading advocate for people to take such good care of their mouths that they don't need dentists. Dr Ellie agreed to help Wise Athletes by explaining the basics of how the human mouth repairs damage to keep teeth and gums strong and healthy over a long lifetime, while also not allowing oral bacteria to infect the body which leads to heart disease, dementia, and diabetes. Dr Ellie also explains how people undermine those natural functions with entirely avoidable errors....leading to tooth decay, gun disease, and poor nitric oxide production. For the older athlete, oral health is low hanging fruit for higher performance. The upside is a better smile, a healthy mouth, and a long, healthy life.

After talking to Dr Ellie, I am convinced that oral health is a missing pillar of health that is so easy to do right if we only knew what to do. You've come to the right place to find out how.

Impact of Oral Health on Overall Health

• Cardiovascular Disease: Poor oral health, particularly gum disease, has been associated with an increased risk of heart disease. The bacteria from inflamed gums can enter the bloodstream, potentially leading to arterial plaque formation and heart complications.
• Diabetes: There is a bidirectional relationship between diabetes and periodontal disease. Individuals with diabetes are more susceptible to infections, including gum disease, which can, in turn, affect blood sugar control.
• Respiratory Infections: Inadequate oral hygiene can lead to the inhalation of bacteria from the mouth into the lungs, increasing the risk of respiratory infections such as pneumonia.
• Cognitive Decline: Emerging research suggests a connection between oral health and cognitive functions. For instance, a study found that individuals with fewer natural teeth at age 70 had a higher risk of cognitive impairment and mortality.
