The Inflammatory Response in the Body and the Bacteria that Cause Gum Disease Have Been Linked to ALL of These Diseases! The OLD MODEL of dentistry is: Get you in, clean your teeth, schedule your next appointment, give your kid a toy, and send you on your way. But that isn’t the NEW MODEL of dentistry, and it is NOT the model we follow at A Reason to Smile. We are a Comprehensive Health Dentistry Practice. Schedule an Appointment Today! |
What Is a Comprehensive Health Dentist? We look at your oral health in the context of your whole person — your habits, your lifestyle, and your overall health. That is why we talk to our patients about the long-term impact of poor dental health as it pertains to your overall health. We engage our patients to help them develop healthy lifestyle choices that support their overall well being, and help them AVOID problems before they happen. Schedule an Appointment Today! |

How Does Poor Dental Health Hurt Me Overall? Nothing in your body happens in a vacuum. The human body is a complete, integrated, closed loop system. Whatever happens in one part of the body happens TO the rest of the body. What “the dental industry” commonly refers to as “gum disease” is in fact, inflammation in the tissues of your mouth. But that is the problem – your mouth is connected to every other part of the body. By having inflammation in the tissues of your mouth, your whole body has an Inflammatory Response. Inflammation has been directly linked to these disease processes and adverse events: Hear Attack, Stroke, Alzheimer’s Disease, Heart Disease, Diabetes, Complications with pregnancy, and Erectile Dysfunction. You CANNOT have inflammation “just in your mouth” and be healthy. If inflammation exists in one part of the body, the whole body is INFLAMED. This is why our team looks at the whole person, and their oral health in order to provide comprehensive care for our patients. |
