Our Dental Health has a significant impact on our general health throughout our lives.  Our ability to

 communicate, socialize, take nutrition, feel good and remain healthy are all affected by our dental health.

 Numerous studies have "linked" dental health to heart disease, diabetes, some respiratory diseases,

 strokes, problems with pregnancies, low birth weights, chronic headaches and various digestive disorders.

 Maintaining good (or better yet... EXCELLENT!) oral health is fundamental to establishing a plan of living a

long comfortable life.  Excellent oral health is not just teeth!!!  read on!

 

Excellent oral health is created by a harmony of five factors:

               1. Teeth

               2. Gum and bone support

               3. Occlusion ( the way your upper and lower teeth come together)

               4. Jaw joint and muscles that cause the lower jaw to function

               5. Attention to good home care

Dr Swartz evaluates ALL of these factors during our New Patient  process in order to provide you with the

best treatment plan to achieve optimum oral health and thereby affect your general health.
