Oral Care Is Vital to Your Overall Health
There is a strong connection between your oral health and your overall health and well-being. Poor dental health can have serious consequences. For example, periodontal disease and cavities are painful costly conditions that are preventable with good oral hygiene. Your mouth has its own microbiome, which is a community of beneficial and harmful bacteria. When these communities are balanced, you can have good oral health. However, an overgrowth of harmful bacteria, which often feeds on plaque and tartar, can cause problems.
Also, your mouth is highly vascularized, which means there are a lot of blood vessels that run along your tongue and gum line. The overgrowth of bacteria alongside swollen and inflamed gums means there is a higher likelihood these bacteria can get into your bloodstream. Rising levels of bacteria increase the inflammatory response in the body, which can lead to serious health conditions such as Alzheimer’s and cardiovascular disease, stroke, and Type 2 diabetes. Specialty dentistry services in Kingsburg can help treat and prevent a variety of oral health concerns.
Specialty Dentistry Services Can Help Maintain Your Health
Our specialty dentistry services in Kingsburg can help you develop an oral care regimen that addresses your healthcare needs. The following are some of the services we offer in our practice.
Cleanings and Examinations
Dental cleanings and oral examinations are the foundation of good oral health. A dental cleaning remove the plaque and tartar that builds up on your teeth, which is a substrate on which bacteria grows. During your appointment, our skilled dentists and hygienist will examine your mouth, looking for evidence of cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer. When caught early, each of these health conditions is more easily and effectively treated.
Sleep Medicine
Sleep is a foundational factor needed for good overall health. If you think you have sleep apnea, our experienced team can create a treatment plan to replace traditional CPAP treatment. Symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea include waking in the morning with a headache or dry mouth; intermittently stopping and starting breathing at night that your partner may notice; waking during the night to urinate; and excessive daytime sleepiness.
Cosmetic Dentistry
This branch of dentistry focuses on the appearance of your smile, including treatments such as teeth whitening, dental bonding, and dental veneers. The primary difference between cosmetic dentistry and general dentistry is that while most dental treatments restore appearance, health, and function, a cosmetic dentistry procedure focuses on the aesthetics of your smile.
As cosmetic dentists, we can fill in small gaps or spaces between your teeth, repair chipped or cracked teeth, and whiten tooth discoloration or staining.
Gum Treatments
Seeing a little blood when you brush your teeth could be a warning sign of gum disease. The mildest type is gingivitis, where only the gums are infected. However, untreated gingivitis can lead to periodontitis, a more serious infection below the gum line.
Other symptoms include sensitive teeth, wiggling or shifting teeth, shrinking gums, and chronic bad breath. Both gum diseases could raise your risk of health conditions such as pneumonia, osteoporosis, and cancer. Our Kingsburg team offers a wide range of specialty dentistry procedures that can treat gum disease.
Crowns and Bridges
These are two of the most common types of implants, used to restore your smile and also to protect the health of your teeth and jaw. A crown goes over a single tooth after a root canal to keep the tooth covered and protected.
A dental bridge is a tooth prosthetic that uses your good teeth as an anchor and may replace one or more teeth at a time. A bridge fills spaces that are left in your mouth when you lose a tooth; it prevents your permanent teeth from shifting, which can change your bite, cause you jaw pain, and weaken the jawbone.
Pediatric Care
Strong, healthy adult teeth begin in childhood. You can expect comprehensive care for your children from infancy through adulthood in our practice. Pediatric care requires additional training and experience to ensure your children have beautiful smiles and are empowered with the knowledge they need to create a lifetime of healthy oral habits.
