Diseased teeth and gums lead to erectile dysfunction
Diseases of the oral cavity are seen as an indicator of general health of the body. In general, their presence is associated with the development of other disease processes in the body, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
In periodontitis affected the general health condition that affects the ability of the man in bed. Risk of erectile dysfunction has in obesity, heart disease and diabetes. So the conclusions of the research teams are not so surprising, although the connection still is not even accepted by all androlozi.
In general, any disease or condition that leads to heart disease poses further problems in respect potency - heart in general imply the development of erection problems.
Be more rigorous studies now demonstrate in detail the relationship between inflammatory disease and erectile dysfunction, and clarify whether dental disease directly and by what mechanism is causing the problem.
Infection in periodontitis usually starts from a tooth, spread through the root canal and reaches the bone that holds the tooth to the jaw. From here the infection can easily spread to the bloodstream and cause a series of defeats, such as to contribute to blood thickening, which reflects the general circulation. And we know that the male sexual organ, particularly to achieve and maintain an erection requires a good blood supply.
At this stage it is known that periodontitis levels of inflammatory agents the immune system increase. Inflammation in itself is a reaction of the organism against foreign objects and a way to fight infection. Chronic high levels of "agents" of the immune system, however, adversely affect overall health.
If periodontitis is synthesized and less of the enzyme eNOS, which is involved in the process of achieving an erection. The enzyme releases nitric oxide, through which blood vessels relax and increases blood flow to the penis.
According to Dr. David Meldram, infertility expert and professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, studies provide the first indications of the relationship of inflammatory diseases on sexual health.
Previous studies have shown that men with erectile dysfunction have higher levels of inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein.
Another cause of inflammatory diseases is the accumulation of abdominal fat, which is also considered a risk factor for erectile dysfunction. And inflammation in general, and the accumulation of abdominal fat predisposes to the development of cardiovascular diseases.
According to medics in erectile dysfunction and the presence of diseases of the teeth and gums, states should be treated simultaneously to achieve the desired effect of therapy.
