Mouth-Body Connection - Chattanooga, TN
A Healthy Mouth Leads to a Healthy Body
A Healthy Body Begins with Good Oral Health.
Achieving dental health provides life-changing benefits for your smile and supports overall, systemic health. At Chattanooga Periodontics & Dental Implants we believe that a healthy body begins with good oral health.
The state of your oral health has a significant effect on your systemic health, whether you are missing teeth, have gum disease or anything in between. From minimally invasive treatments to advanced technology, we take special care to maximize general and oral health benefits for Chattanooga, TN, patients while delivering the least impact on the mouth and body.
Gum Disease and Systemic Health
Numerous research studies link gum disease and oral health with a range of serious systemic health conditions. Such issues include heart disease, stroke, diabetes, certain cancers, respiratory illness, pre-term labor and low birth-weight babies, among others. Many believe the root factor in this relationship to be inflammation caused by oral bacteria and their impact on other body systems. As a full-service practice, we offer effective treatments for all stages of gum disease to improve oral health and reduce the risk of health complications.
