RE: Tooth Loss May Increase Your Risk of Dementia by Up to 80%
Thank you that is very kind. I think it is too early to say this is definite - it is still in the "maybe" camp, and we also don't really have any kind of certainty of the mechanism or direction of causality.
As others have said it could be that there is a common underlying mechanism for tooth loss and dementias (particularly AD) rather than one causing the other.
Thank you for commenting:)
very interesting - my not existing medical knowledge just told me it has to do (losing teeth) with wrong / poor food people eat
