    BAD TEETH

    Did you know a simple decayed tooth can cause some severe bacteria issues in a senior with a compromised immune system. Seniors need to keep all dental hyigene current and brushing and flossing may not be enough. They can get a prescribtion for FLUORIDE drops and put two drops a day into their coffee, milk or juice. This helps keep the teeth strong, as they age , teeth age too, it will not reverse the affects of aging , it just adds strength. Medicare will pay for it too! Bad dental care can cause UTI's, bacteria infections and aggravate your arthritis! YES, its true! Its systemic to your immune system, so KEEP YOUR MOUTH CLEAN
