The Surprising Mouth–Brain Connection

For decades, Alzheimer’s disease has been considered purely a brain disorder — a tragic decline of memory and cognition caused by mysterious changes deep in the mind. But recent research is painting a new and startling picture: the story might actually start in your mouth.

Kevin’s Story

Kevin, a 32-year-old office worker, noticed that his teeth were not perfectly aligned. Though his bite looked fairly normal, he often felt slight crowding on his lower teeth and mild jaw tightness when chewing. He wasn’t in pain, but he wasn’t confident when smiling either.

During his dental visit, his dentist explained that Kevin’s bite was a Class I malocclusion—the most common type of dental alignment, where the upper and lower jaws fit normally, but the teeth may be crowded, rotated, or slightly misaligned.
