Healthy Tissue vs Healthy Body

“Up to 25% of heart diseases can be traced back to bad teeth” (BDA news Nov. 2006)

Healthy tissue is indictive of a healthy body.  Fortunately it is possible to detect health problems at an early stage by visiting an
Oral Hygienist.

Warning signs are the following:

• Gums that bleed when you brush your teeth.
• Gums that are red, swollen and tender.
• Gums that have pulled away from the teeth.
• ‘Fuzzy’ feeling when you run your tongue over your teeth.
• Permanent teeth that are loose or separating.
• Any change in the way your teeth fit together when you bite.
• Any changes in the fit of your partial dentures.
• Bad breath.
