 At Dr. Marnie's office, we strive to provide you with the very best care possible. The overall health of your mouth has an effect on the overall health of your body.
Did you know that…
Gingivitis and plaque build up, both reversible, can lead to periodontal disease.
Periodontal disease which is irreversible is an infection of bacteriaunder gums. This infection leads to bone and tooth loss.
Not only is periodontal disease a factor in the health of your mouth, it is directly linked to heart and lung disease, stroke, diabetes, and certain types of cancers.
A person’s immune system is only as strong and healthy as the body it protects. When your immune system is compromised with an ongoing infection such as periodontal disease, it has a difficult time fighting other infections in your body.
By visiting us for routine hygiene appointments, you protect the health of your teeth, gums and bone as well as the health of your body.
Our skilled hygienists, along with Dr. Marnie, will customize a hygiene regime for home care and in office care designed specifically for your needs.
