Perio-Systemic Disease

Over the past decade, scientific research has revealed a link between gum disease, oral bacteria, and systemic illness. Illnesses such as diabetes, heart disease, infertility, and early-term pregnancy can be affected when oral bacteria gains entrance to the bloodstream through damaged gum tissue.

Dentistry for All Ages

Throughout your lifetime, your dental needs will vary. The most important thing to remember is that cavities are caused by bacterial waste. Bacteria is contagious, they eat carbohydrates, this can be candy, milk, fruit and even vegetables. Just like we eat and have waste, they eat the sugars you eat and convert that into an acidic waste byproduct that dissolves the enamel on our teeth. They live in that sticky white plaque and biofilm on the surface of your teeth and under the gum line. It is necessary to brush twice daily, floss once a day and rinse with water after every meal.

Adult Aging Health Issues

Dentists have long known that tobacco use affects a person’s oral health in bad ways; from bad breath, tooth decay, and periodontal disease to oral cancer. Few people would dispute that it can be difficult to quit using tobacco. Because all forms; cigarettes, cigars, and snuff contain nicotine, which can cause addiction or dependence. However, it is possible to quit and never go back.
