Preventative Dental Care
Emphasizing your dental health care through regular examinations and preventative measures
not only helps preserve your teeth and gum tissue, but also helps to protect and preserve your physical body. The days of
oral health being just an oral issue are behind us. Research indicates a direct connection between oral bacteria and inflammation
that attacks different areas of the body. It is now considered a risk factor in heart attacks, strokes, some forms of cancer,
diabetes, and other disorders of the body. We take the connection seriously, and teaching our patients to help protect their
overall health through excellent dental hygiene is one of our major priorities. Our philosophy has always been that it is
far better to prevent dental disease than it is to deal with the effects of the disease. Thus, we consider prevention the
first line of defense.
