Cancer Progression by Gum Disease

James Franklin

The whole study provides a concise explanation of how gum disease contributes to cancer. If someone has gum disease, it could progress to cancer. If someone does not practise proper dental hygiene, such as brushing, cleaning,and washing their hands after eating, food can get stuck on their teeth, which will encourage the growth of bacteria and result in bacterial infection. The mouth is unpleasant tasting, the gums are retreating from the teeth, and there are other indications of gum disease.
