Is Green Tea Good for Your Gums?
Periodontal disease is a serious and too frequent chronic infection of the gums that can lead to tooth loss.
The authors in the study referenced below examined the epidemiologic relationship between the intake of green tea and periodontal (gum) disease. The study involved a survey of 940 Japanese men.
The authors report an inverse relationship between green tea intake and gum disease, meaning those men who reported drinking green tea had a reduced risk of periodontal disease.
