A recent study has discovered a correlation between severe tooth loss and an increased risk of fatal heart disease. The research builds on previous findings that suggested missing one or more teeth could heighten the risk of heart and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). CVDs, impacting the heart and blood vessels, remain the leading cause of death worldwide. The study was published in the Journal of Endodontics.
