Is oral health related to vascular risk? 🦷❤️
Heart attack and stroke remain leading causes of death and disability worldwide. We know many of the major risk factors for these diseases, but oral health's role in vascular ageing is still not well understood. A new study aims to change that.
The study is investigating whether oral structure and function - including bite force - can help explain arterial stiffness beyond established cardiovascular risk factors like blood pressure, cholesterol, and lifestyle.
As part of the assessment, Innobyte™ is being used to measure bite force.
The study is ongoing, with results expected to help clarify whether oral health markers deserve a place in future cardiovascular prevention strategies.
