gobstoppers_are_crunchy well u swallow the stuff that is in yr teeth that you dont floss eventually and it goes to yr heart and it can clog it @_o That's not true, when you swallow stuff it goes to your stomac, it is digested by acid, it then goes to your intestines where it is absorbed through the walls of the micro villi. In other words, It's like eating real small pieces of food, it won't do anything unless it's pure fat or lard. (Eww.)

I knew I'd heard this before so I googled it. I found an article that doesn't go into the specifics, but "Taking care of your teeth and gums may reduce your chances of heart disease."
Also, the article states that "It's possible that in someone with gum disease the mouth's pesky bacteria travel through the bloodstream and prompt inflammation that clogs arteries, Desvarieux said, in a news release last month."
online article
Eh, I'm satisfied enough... but you guys can look up how the bacteria gets into the bloodstream if you really want to. =P

My dentist said that if I don't floss, my gums will swell and can easily bleed. Having a phobia of blood (forgot the correct term), I try to floss more often. biggrin
