Poor Oral and Periodontal Health a Risk For Erectile Dysfunction?!

An interesting read reported in this Medical News Today article, Erectile Dysfunction Might Be Associated With Chronic Periodontal Disease: Two Ends Of The Cardiovascular Spectrum. This is some early research suggesting that chronic periodontal disesase (CPD) might cause or be associated with erectile dysfuntion (ED) and/or coronary artery disease. In short, "CPD might be associated first with ED in young men and later with coronary artery disease in middle-aged men." It just might be time to recommit to better brushing, flossing, rinsing, etc.
