Did you know your overall health starts with your oral health?
The Boise Center for Cosmetic Dentistry is ready to help.
General Dentistry
If you have poor oral hygiene, you might be putting more than your teeth at risk. Studies have linked periodontal (gum) disease with heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and much more.
Gum disease begins below the gumline, which leads to inflammation and bleeding gums. Thus, your gums become a wound, providing an open gateway for invading bacteria.
Research shows:
- The arteries of some stroke victims are infested with dental bacteria.
- Diabetics with gum disease are at greater risk of heart attacks than those with healthy gums.
- Pregnant women with gum disease are more likely to give birth prematurely
"Thanks for the nice smile! I appreciate the work that you have done for me."
