Is it a joke/dream/possibility in future? The mini review points to the possibility of controlling atherosclerosis and ischemic stroke through proper oral hygiene, regular dental check-up, removing tooth decay, preventing dental plaque and gum diseases. A systematic and detailed survey/study of oral health conditions among the neuro/cardio patients may be useful in improving their health recovery. Maintaining good oral health with regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups are crucial for preventing gum diseases. Moreover, mouthwash can be a helpful component of oral hygiene. Daily use of proven natural materials such as 0.1% turmeric mouthwash or coconut oil can reduce the chance of gum diseases.enArticle
