Human bodies are susceptible to injuries, illnesses and trauma. We never know
when any injury may happen to us or the people we love or those who are around
us. Thus it is always good to have some amount of basic knowledge to take care of
critical situations, to keep it from going from bad to worse or till the medical help
arrives. First aid training comes in handy for a variety of different situations in life.
Knowledge of first aid promotes a healthy, secure and a safer environment, and
instills confidence amongst people, their families. Basic first aid knowledge is very
helpful in dealing with trauma situations. Not just the medical help they provide, but
the confidence they exhibit is very helpful during casualties. Being trained to
provide first aid is useful to oneself and society.

Long-term gum infection can eventually result in the loss of teeth. But the
consequences may not end there. Recent research suggests that there may be an
association between oral infections and poorly controlled diabetes, cardiovascular

disease and preterm birth. Oral inflammation due to bacteria may also play a role in
clogged arteries and blood clots. It appears that bacteria in the mouth may cause
inflammation throughout the body, including the arteries. This inflammation may
serve as a base for development of atherosclerotic plaques in the arteries, possibly
increasing your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Moreover, severe gum disease may
increase the risk of preterm delivery and giving birth to a low birth weight baby. The
theory is that oral bacteria release toxins, which reach the placenta through the
mother's bloodstream and interfere with the growth and development of the fetus.
At the same time, the oral infection causes the mother to produce labor-triggering
substances too quickly, potentially triggering premature labor and birth.
