Whoopi Goldberg talks about Gum Disease on The View- It can kill you!
Whoopi’s personal experience with gum disease sheds light on how serious it can be and how easily it can be prevented. She had an infection in her face and needed to have emergency gum surgery. She had great dental insurance but did nothing with it. For years and years she let her mouth go and is loosing teeth and loosing bone. Entire mouth is connected to the entire immune system. Cardiologists are now speaking to dentists. She further said she is going to loose her teeth. Check out this important video.

That’s pretty good… looks like an older episode, but a great message.
I can’t tell you how many people don’t take proper care of their mouths and it’s so easy to do. Especially flossing… flossing even if you brush twice a day can get so much stuff your brush can’t.
That was a really good post and video.

wow that’s really great video, having very informative message to all. Teeth are very important part of human body and all should take care of teeth. If base of teeth is infected it means whole building affected, so if we didn’t clean of it no dentist in the world will clean it for me.
