Abstract

The human body is comprised of complex systems, which are interconnected with each other. Because of the way, the

of social well-being. The oral hygiene measures related to professional level, level of education and periodontal maintenance.

Some studies report that oral health has an impact on food choice and on the intake of key nutrients, causing various nutritional

problems. Recent researches on oral and general health have shown a link between the two. With more than 90% of systemic

diseases having oral symptoms. These symptoms can include swollen gums, sores, ulcers, dry mouth and more. The following

diseases are an example of a systemic disease which has symptoms expressed in the mouth like diabetes, leukemia, oral cancer,

pancreatic cancer, heart disease and kidney disease. Research has also shown that poor dental hygiene and gum disease can

directly increase the risk of heart disease, heart attack, diabetes, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis and even stroke. Women with
