Definitions

1. Plaque deposits are associated with high concentrations of cholesterol in the blood. (Web site)
2. Plaque deposits were prevented on the teeth. (Web site)
3. Some plaque deposits are soft and are prone to cracking or forming roughened, irregular areas inside the artery.
4. The plaque deposits were removed from the teeth and the build up of any plaque deposits was prevented. (Web site)

Flexible

1. Eventually, the plaque deposits can make the artery narrow and less flexible.

Rupture

1. Moreover, plaque deposits may rupture, releasing fat and cholesterol into the bloodstream.

Tooth Decay

1. Left untreated, plaque deposits can eventually lead to gum disease and tooth decay.
2. The cosmetic clay can remove stubborn plaque deposits and contains minerals that help to strengthen tooth enamel, the basic shield against tooth decay. (Web site)

Gum Problems

1. The deeper the pockets, the easier it is for plaque deposits to become trapped and worsen gum problems.

Blood Clot Forms

1. This can happen when plaque deposits in the blood vessel walls rupture and a blood clot forms.

Block Blood

1. Blood clots can form around the plaque deposits and block blood flow. (Web site)
2. Eventually these plaque deposits can build up to significantly reduce or block blood flow to the heart. (Web site)
3. Plaque deposits can also rupture, causing blood clots to form that can block blood flow or break off and travel to another part of the body.

Brushing

1. Plaque deposits quickly harden into calculus or tartar, which is a rough, porous substance not removable with brushing.

Narrowing

1. In general this results because excess fat or plaque deposits are narrowing the veins that supply oxygenated blood to the heart.

Blood

1. The plaque deposits make the arteries less flexible and more difficult for blood to flow leading to heart attack and stroke. (Web site)
2. These plaque deposits cause arteries to become narrow and blocked, which restricts blood and oxygen flow to the heart muscle. (Web site)

Endarterectomy

1. Endarterectomy - Surgical removal of plaque deposits or blood clots in an artery.

Teeth Surfaces

1. Remember to clean the inside teeth surfaces where plaque deposits are heavy, and clean the back teeth and tongue.

Healthy Teeth

1. Healthy teeth have fewer cavities and they are clean and have minimal or no plaque deposits along with healthy gums that are pink and firm.

Hypercholesterolemia

1. High cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) can cause the formation and accumulation of plaque deposits in the arteries.
2. High cholesterol levels, or hypercholesterolemia, can cause the formation and accumulation of plaque deposits in the arteries.

Plaque Deposits

1. Healthy teeth will have fewer cavities and, when kept clean, will have minimal or no plaque deposits and the gums will be pink and firm.
2. Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) is caused by the long-term effects of plaque deposits. (Web site)
3. The problem is, plaque deposits can grow large enough to interfere with the blood flow through the artery, which results in blockage.
