What Can a Smile Makeover do for Me?
Plenty. A smile makeover not only restores confidence but also helps your overall health. If you follow Dr. Ringer’s Blog, you will know that there is a connection between the mouth and the body. If you suffer from gum disease or tooth decay, have missing, chipped, or cracked teeth, your body could be paying the price as well.
What is the Mouth and Body Connection?
Your mouth is teaming with bacteria, and while most of those bacteria are the good kind, bad oral hygiene prevents it from doing its job. Did you know that diabetics have double the risk of gum disease?
According to your dentist in Anaheim Hills, people who cannot control blood sugar levels are more susceptible to gum disease. This makes diabetics twice as likely to suffer from periodontal disease. If you have diabetes, schedule frequent dental appointments and you will avoid gingivitis and periodontal disease. Better yet, schedule an appointment for a smile makeover consultation.
The Heart and Mouth Connection
A smile makeover keeps your teeth and gums healthy. If you have missing teeth or teeth that are in need of restoration food particles and bacteria will eat away at the enamel on your teeth. Once the enamel is gone, your teeth will begin to decay causing dental caries and gum disease.
If you have pockets between your teeth and gums, bacteria will seep into your blood stream. If this occurs, that plaque and tartar caused from poor oral hygiene habits will attach itself to your blood vessels and the vessels in your heart. This restricts oxygen flow. People with gum disease have a higher risk of congestive heart failure than people who do not.
A Smile Makeover for Tooth Loss
It’s not a surprise that people with missing teeth don’t smile much. If you have a missing tooth, especially in the front, the last thing you want to do is show off your grin.
Dental implants restore your confidence and your health with artificial teeth and titanium steel tooth roots that act as natural teeth. With dental implants, you can chew, talk, laugh, and smile with confidence. Dr. Ringer and his dental implant team have the experience and expertise to design a new smile with dental implants.
Your smile is the first thing people notice when you walk into a room. Make sure yours is just as healthy as it is beautiful with a no obligation smile makeover consultation. Dr. Ringer is waiting to give you the smile you deserve.
