    Teeth and head colds
    I would like to know if bad teeth can be a cause of head colds as a rule. My daughter has colds ALL OF THE TIME and allergies have been ruled out. Could it be that her teeth (adult of 26)are not healthy?
    Thanks

    As a rule, no (although bad teeth that are not attended to can cause infection in the body) bad teeth will not cause head colds but a weakened immune system will. You paint a picture of an unhealthy person.
