Maintain a Beautiful Smile
You know that brushing and flossing regularly can keep your gums clean and prevent painful cavities.
However, did you know that good dental hygiene
may help prevent heart attack
and stroke?
Gum disease has a direct correlation
to your cardiac health.
A balanced diet and proper oral hygiene are
paramount to fighting off painful dental problems
that can get serious very quickly.
Your dentist’s goal is to preserve your teeth, which includes your gums and supporting bones.
That’s why it is so important to see your
dentist regularly.
A comprehensive
dental exam usually includes the
following:
X-rays
to detect tooth decay and monitor bone loss.
Tooth Exam
to check the surface of each individual tooth for decay.
Oral cancer screening
to detect early signs of cancer in the mouth
Restoration Exam
to decide if crowns, fillings or other dental work should be replaced.
Finally, the dentist will perform an evaluation for periodontal disease which is a
precursor for
heart disease.
Your dentist is on your side.
See him regularly
to ensure that
you always have a healthy mouth and a
beautiful smile.
