Exercise and Omega-3: Reducing Dental Infections Effectively
Understanding Dental Infections Dental infections, particularly in the form of periodontitis, can lead to serious health issues. Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease affecting the tissues surrounding the teeth, primarily caused by bacterial infection. Chronic apical periodontitis, a specific type, occurs at the root of the tooth and can lead to pain, swelling, and tooth loss…

How Omega-3 and Exercise Reduce Dental Infections
Understanding Periodontitis and Its Impact on Dental Health Periodontitis, particularly apical periodontitis, is a chronic condition characterized by inflammation at the apex of the tooth root. This inflammation can lead to severe dental pain, tooth loss, and systemic health issues if left untreated. Recent studies indicate that the combination of physical exercise and omega-3 supplementation…
