Hygienist

You can’t underestimate the power of a healthy mouth. 

There are now numerous links between oral bacteria and serious systemic diseases.
So, not only can controlling plaque bacteria reduce the risk of decay, gum disease and increase the lifespan of your restorations. It can also have a huge impact on your overall health.
By reducing oral bacteria you can decrease your risk of heart disease, diabetes, as well as neuro degenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s. 

It can also reduce the impact on the aging process as well as preventing serious complications to viral infections.
In essence:
A healthy mouth = A healthy body.
