Take Care of Your Gums, Take Care of Your Heart

Monday, January 29, 2007


Recent research has shown that there is a link between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease.
According to Dr. Sam Low of the University of Florida College of Dentistry, the bacteria that cause periodontal disease are being found in blood vessels removed during heart by pass surgeries. Periodontal disease is now being linked with strokes, low birth weight babies and diabetes. This is important to remember that when Katherine, Kim or myself are giving you the "lecture" about better home care and more frequent visits for cleaning that we are concerned about more than your teeth. we are concerned about your overall well-being and your life!
