Dental health and medical health directly interact. Personal experience having had a staph infection in throat lead to infection in gums and loss of teeth. In general, oral infections do not remain isolated to the teeth and can enter blood stream leading to the heart disease.
How dental care has been considered a non essential concern in healthcare is a major oversight. I realized there are 2 separate types of dental care but somehow it’s been overlooked. Esthetics opposed to disease in dental care should be reviewed.
