People with poor oral hygiene are more at risk of heart disease compared to counterparts who brush their teeth twice a day, according to a Scottish study released on Friday.
University College London researchers looked over data from an investigation into 11,000 people in Scotland, covering their medical history, family records of disease, and lifestyle.
Seven out of 10 reported they brushed their teeth twice a day, and six out of 10 said they visited the dentist every six months.
