Q: “How does stress affect my oral health?” 
A: Stress can take a toll on your pearly whites in many ways! When stress builds up we may unknowingly clench our jaw or grind our teeth. This can lead to worn enamel, jaw pain and even headaches.
Stress weakens our immune system, making it harder for our bodies to fight off infections.
This includes gum disease, which can result in bleeding gums, inflammation, and bad breath.
Under stress, we often turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms like sugary snacks or neglecting oral hygiene routines. These choices can pave the way for tooth decay and other oral issues.
