Due to recent studies, there is a strong association between periodontal (gum) disease and cardiovascular disease. Periodontal pathogens and inflammation can enter the bloodstream through the gums, contributing to systemic inflammation and potentially increasing the risk of developing or exacerbating cardiovascular problems such as atherosclerosis (plaque buildup in the arteries). We evaluate not only the condition of the teeth and gums but also assess for signs of inflammation, infection, or other oral health issues that may contribute to systemic inflammation and cardiovascular risk. Using individualized and genetically guided therapies, we can locate and eliminate specific bacteria that are often underlying causes of arterial inflammation and other ailments.
Periodontal disease is an infection of gum tissue that is caused by a buildup of plaque. The early signs of periodontal disease are swollen, bleeding gums. If this disease isn't treated, teeth can become sensitive and may even start coming loose. If you notice these signs of periodontal disease, call Contemporary Dental Design, the cosmetic dentists Arlington Heights, IL turns to.
Absolutely! If you experience severe nerve pain, seeing your dentist as soon as possible is crucial, even if the pain subsides on its own. Subsiding pain doesn't necessarily mean the underlying issue is resolved. Severe dental pain could indicate problems like infection, tooth decay, gum disease, or a cracked tooth. Leaving these issues untreated could lead to further complications. It's always best to address dental pain promptly to prevent worsening conditions.
During a routine check-up, we will examine your teeth and gums for signs of decay, gum disease, or other oral health issues. X-rays may be taken to detect any hidden problems. Your teeth will also be professionally cleaned to remove plaque and tartar buildup.
