Dental Care Can Prevent Dementia

Caring for your teeth is a good habit, and needs to be done. But apparently there are other benefits that dental care can prevent dementia.
Brushing your teeth can help sharper memory for years to come. Those who brush their teeth less than once a day potentially 65 percent of those who suffer from dementia than brushing your teeth three times a day.

Dementia is a brain disorder cognitive function thoroughly characterized, among others with impaired memory function. Usually begins with short-term memory followed by medium and long-term memory. Dementia is progressive and usually difficult to cure.

Unhealthy lifestyles allegedly triggering the onset of dementia, one of which is the lazy habit of brushing your teeth. The study, conducted by researchers from the University of California shows that. The study followed 5500 elderly respondents and studied for more than 18 years.
Annlia Paganini Hill, head of research, said the habit of cleaning your teeth and mouth does not only come from the mind. Mouth cleaning habits also affect whether or not someone potentially dementia.

Research linking oral health to body condition was not the first. Previously, research has emerged regarding dental health is closely related to people with narrowing of the arteries that can cause heart attacks and strokes.

Other studies find people with Alzheimer's, one of the most common forms for dementia, have gum disease-causing bacteria in their mouths more than those who do not have Alzheimer's. Bacteria that cause gum disease is thought to cause inflammation and damage when it reaches the brain.

In a recent study involving scientists at California retirement community. The researchers observed the activity of the elderly aged 52-105 years with an average age of 81 years, beginning in 1992 to 2010.

A total of 1145 respondents had signs of dementia after 18 years of observation. 78 women admitted rarely brushed their teeth once a day in 1992. A total of 21 respondents of whom have dementia in 2010, or about 1 in 3.7 women. Those who have to brush your teeth at least once a day have a lower probability level. Approximately 1 out of 4.5 women or 65 percent chance of developing dementia.

Jessica Smith of Community Alzheimer say there are some studies that examine the inflammation caused by many factors including poor dental health and dementia. However, these results have not been fully understood.

Amber Watts, who studied at the University of Kansas dementia and is not part of the research team, adding injury to the head and malnutrition is one of the most common causes of tooth loss in adults. One of these could increase the risk of dementia.

"I still can not draw definitive conclusions brushing prevents you from Alzheimer's disease," he said,

However, Watts assess the results of this study could be an important step to understanding how to maintain oral health habits can be linked to dementia.

Paganini-Hill drew the conclusion, when relations between the two terms is accurate, then there are certain things you can do to prevent early dementia. As familiarize maintain oral health and prevent loss of teeth. If the tooth is loose, you should wear dentures.

Snapshots of how I've spent my week

Monday 13th August - Sunday 19th August

(Posting this up a tad late I'm afraid as I've had a super packed weekend and had an early night as soon as I got in yesterday!)




1, 2, 3 & 4. Night out! A small collection of photos from our uniform themed night out - don't our outfits look good?!
5 & 6. At a mini music festival Our local council put on a 'Party in the Park' with food, drink and lots of bands - it was lots of fun!
7. The Maine My new favourite band...
8. ...and the lead singer ...my new crush!

This week I've been -

Watching...Teen Wolf
Reading...The other side of the story by Marian Keyes
Listening to...The Maine and Sleeping With Sirens
Playing...A game on my phone where I can run my own restaurant (that same one that was on FB!)
Smelling of...Harajuki Lovers Fragrance - Lil' Angel
Perving on...John O'Callaghan
Loving...my friends and family

I'm afraid to say that this week I didn't spend much time sober. Er, I know it's bad. But let me explain, I have an excuse, honest! Thursday we had our big school uniform night out and it was a hilarious night! Our first stop was The Park, this really awesome bar I used to go to before I went to uni, and of course we walked in and were the only ones dressed up! I was gutted of course because it was filled with rocker boys and I looked like an idiot! We went onto Liquid/Envy afterwards where the actual event was being held and didn't feel so silly. Don't our outfits look awesome?! I was so proud of the glasses. I might even post a tutorial on how to achieve the look if anyone is planning to do school uniform themed fancy dress anytime soon! Anyway it was a great night, we made lots of new friends as usual and one of my friends who came out with us is actually the official photographer for the club. So naturally out of the 500 or so photos he took that night, at least 200 of them were of us! Madness. The photos were really funny too.

Instead of recovering on Friday we decided last minute to have a night out in Watford and ended up at a really ghetto club which was also hilarious. It's funny how it works as me and my friend both have complete opposite tastes in music so she was right at home in this particular club where I knew no songs whatsoever. I also had my first experience of 'real grinding' which I don't really want to repeat!

Then on Saturday me and my Dad popped into Dunstable to meet my Mum on her work break and watch a few bands at this Party in the Park thing. It's on every year and I've never been but it was such a good day! The bands were awesome and it was nice and sunny. We'd planned to go once my Mum was back at work but we spotted one of Dad's friends and stuck around for a bit more. Then my cousin walked past and we thought he was just down with his Mum but he invited us over where we found literally the whole of my Dad's family were camped out enjoying the day, so we joined them! Naturally this turned into another not so sober night so after a quick detour to pick up some cold beer and Amy, we returned and had a boogie.

Yesterday we just had a chilled out day taking Jasper for a long walk and having a picnic.

Finally, I've become obsessed with a new band this week. You know when you discover a new band and they just consume you and it's all you listen to? Yeah, that was me this week. Even better, I just found out they're doing a gig in London next month so I'm booking tickets first thing tomorrow. I'm so excited. And the lead singer is just the most gorgeous man I've ever laid eyes on....have a mooch at a few of their videos below!

They're so good!

P.S Feel free to follow me on Instagram @Louise_Joy_ for more photos of what I get up to throughout the week!
