Dentistry that prioritizes total body health focuses on the connection between oral and overall health. Based on their dental health, medical history, and daily routines, it is unique to each patient.

Numerous infections enter the body through the mouth. Conversely, disease elsewhere in the body is frequently indicated by symptoms in the mouth. Thanks to full health dentistry, which also helps patients understand the link between good dental care and good overall health care, dental practitioners can provide services that are beneficial to both oral and general health.

How does oral health affect general health?

The natural defenses of the body and fundamental oral hygiene techniques, like using fluoride toothpaste, flossing, and scheduling regular dental cleanings, typically keep oral bacteria under control. However, if you don’t maintain appropriate dental hygiene, the bacteria in your mouth could multiply and build up as plaque and tartar, which would cause tooth decay. Through the gum tissue, the bacteria that cause periodontitis can enter your bloodstream and cause health problems throughout the body, including Cardiac disease, Stroke, Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, Ankylosing spondylitis, Diabetes, Pregnancy, and delivery issues, including premature births and low birth weight, Pneumonia, numerous cancers.

On the other hand, systemic diseases that are already present in other parts of your body may have a detrimental impact on your oral health. Complete dentistry seeks to address both the surface and underlying causes of dental problems. It places a strong emphasis on overall dental health, including issue prevention. Our patients can gain from a proactive and all-encompassing approach to preserving and developing their oral health and general well-being.
