Your Dental Health, Examined

We try to get the word out about the connection between oral health and overall health any chance we get. For instance, numerous studies and articles point to significant links between gum disease and cardiovascular disease.  So when we ran across an article about oral health and general well being in a recent issue of Real Simple magazine, we were excited to see some highly visible coverage on the subject. Perfect Smile’s line of CoQ10 Oral Care products contain advanced, proprietary ingredients that can help keep your teeth and gums healthy. Our CoQ10 Oral Care products can even help reverse the symptoms of gum disease!  Take a look at the Real Simple article “Your Dental Health, Examined” and then check out our Perfect Smile CoQ10 Toothpaste, CoQ10 Mouthwash and CoQ10 Chewing Gum to help you get and keep a whiter, brighter, healthier smile.

Studies Show CoQ10 Helps Cure Gum Disease

Stages of Periodontal Disease

Numerous studies have found evidence of deficiencies of CoQ10 in diseased gum tissue, but not in normal gum tissue.  Several human clinical trials have demonstrated that topical administration and oral supplementation with CoQ10 can significantly improve and even reverse diseased gum conditions.    Taking CoQ10 supplements was found to increase immune system activity to healthy levels and topical applications have demonstrated a positive localized effect on diseased gum tissue.  With both taking supplements and topical application of CoQ10, no toxicity or adverse side effects have been observed.  Researchers have concluded that restoring CoQ10 levels in diseased tissue creates increased energy production that generates new gum tissue to heal and reverses the effects of gum disease.

A daily oral care routine that includes Perfect Smile CoQ10 Toothpaste, CoQ10 Mouthwash and CoQ10 Chewing gum can help improve and maintain healthy levels of CoQ10 in your gums. In addition, Perfect Smile’s CoQ10 Oral Health Supplement can further increase your body’s level of CoQ10 to strengthen your gums and fight gum disease.

Statin Medications Can Deplete CoQ10

Statins like Lipitor can reduce CoQ10If you or someone you know are taking statin medications to help control high cholesterol, you need to know how statins affect CoQ10! Statin medications, including the extremely popular Lipitor, are known to deplete the amount of CoQ10 in the body. Combined with the fact that as we age, we naturally produce less CoQ10, levels of CoQ10 can become greatly reduced in people taking statins to lower cholesterol. Because CoQ10 is both used by cells to produce energy and also acts as an antioxidant to repair cells damaged by free-radicals, finding ways to supplement CoQ10 to bring levels back up is extremely important to maintaining a healthy heart and also helping fight and reverse gum disease.

Read about how statin medication affects CoQ10 levels in this great article “Statins and CoQ10 Deficiency” by Dr. Duane Graveline. You can also read more about the CoQ10 Heart Health Connection here on the Perfect Smile website and find out about our Advanced CoQ10 Oral Care Kit that can help you maintain healthy CoQ10 levels as well as fight and even reverse the symptoms of gum disease.
