01/18/13 2:25 PM

In studies from Taiwan, Professional tooth scaling was associated with fewer heart attacks and strokes.   Among more than 100,000 people, those who had their teeth scraped and cleaned by a dentist or dental hygienist had a 24 percent lower risk of heart attack and 13 percent lower risk of stroke compared to those who had never had a dental cleaning. The participants in the study were followed for an average of seven years.
