I had done everything the dentist suggested; brush twice (sometimes three times) daily, floss daily, change toothpaste, rinse with hydrogen peroxide before brushing, rinse with a medicinal mouth wash after brushing, and finally, professional cleanings every three months. Nerves are what sense the world around you and pass that information along to your brain. Learn about nerves and see how the nervous system works. Using Imaging to Look at Changes in the Brain – A Conversation with Dr. Nancy C. Andreasen (NY Times) “I haven’t published this yet. But I have spoken about it in public lectures. The big finding is that people with schizophrenia are losing brain tissue at a more rapid rate than healthy people of comparable age. Some are losing as much as 1 percent per year. That’s an awful lot over an 18-year period. And then we’re trying to figure out why. Another thing we’ve discovered is that the more drugs you’ve been given, the more brain tissue you lose.” Suicide Risk Studied in Drugs for Physical Ills (AP via Yahoo) Your Mouth Is Connected to Your Heart and Your Brain and the Rest of You… Posted on Monday, September 29th, 2008 Some articles that ran while we were on our blog holiday that we want to be sure you didn’t miss: Recent studies have raised concern that the condition of gums and teeth may have a direct impact on the development of Alzheimer's disease. These studies are of interest to me because I have been under treatment for the past two years for gingivitis, or inflammatory gum disease. Cranial nerves connect your sense organs (eyes, ears, nose, mouth) to your brain; Central nerves connect areas within the brain and spinal cord; Peripheral nerves connect the spinal cord with your limbs; Autonomic nerves connect the brain and spinal cord with your organs (heart, stomach, intestines, blood vessels, etc.) The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord, including cranial and central nerves. In another study, New York University dental researchers studied people from 50-70 years of age, and were able to link inflamed gums to a greatly increased risk of cognitive impairment. It seems that the pathogens connected with inflamed gums can generate inflammation in the brain cells, resulting in Alzheimer's disease. There are numerous thoughts on the causes of dementia, but staying on top of dental problems is one of the easiest ways to lower your chances of developing this devastating diagnosis. Cranial nerves connect your sense organs (eyes, ears, nose, mouth) to your brain Central nerves connect areas within the brain and spinal cord Peripheral nerves connect the spinal cord with your limbs Autonomic nerves connect the brain and spinal cord with your organs (heart, stomach, intestines, blood vessels, etc.) The central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord, including cranial and central nerves. Some studies even say that oral hygiene is linked to brain health. Maintaining good dental health is important for you and your loved one. Some studies even say that oral hygiene is linked to brain health. Of course not, but it eliminates one possible cause for the disease. One study showed that bi-products of the bacterium p. gingivitis were found in brain samples of four out of ten Alzheimer's patients, but not in any of the brains of ten people without dementia. Query: how is the mouth connected to the brain
