My Gum Disease Is Linked To WHAT???

You've probably heard about the "mouth-body connection" and how periodontal (gum) disease has been linked to heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, in addtion to pregnant women's chances of giving birth to pre-term, low-weight babies.  Did you know, however about the correlation between gum disease and rheumatoid arthritis, kidney disease, and even certain cancers? 



While rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and gum disease are both inflammatory diseases, it is interesting to note that patients with (RA) are eight times more likely to suffer from gum disease than those without (RA).

Also important is the correlation between gum disease and kidney disease.  We know that gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss in adults, so it's noteworthy to learn that toothless adults are more likely to have chronic kidney disease than adults with all of their teeth.



Men with tooth loss and a history of gum disease are reported to have an increased risk of developing certain cancers.  While more research continues to be conducted, associations have been noted between gum disease and kidney, pancreatic and haematologial cancers.  Severe gum disease has also been documented as a risk factor for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. 

Let's talk about your periodontal health, and we'll work to ensure your healthy body starts with a healthy mouth.

Do You Want The Snoring To Stop Tonight....Permanently???

Snoring Mouth Guards (The CPAP Alternative)



The Snoring mouth guard or Suad appliance is a customized oral appliance that holds the jaw in a proper position during sleep. This in turn keeps soft tissue from collapsing and blocking airflow. The snoring mouth guard or Suad appliance is known to eliminate both snoring and obstructive sleep apnea in many cases. Dr. Abel has had great results from the oral appliances he has prescribed, and has many years experience. He is also a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine.
