Infection
The health of your mouth effects the health of your entire body?
DID YOU KNOW?
Skipping regular dental appointments can lead to more than jut bad breath or cavities;It can cause serious problems down the road. When you have a bacterial infection in your tooth the bacteria are able to travel through the tooth pulp and into your bloodstream. They also infect the jaw bone . When the infection is in the upper jaw it can spread to your sinuses and brain. On the lower jaw tooth infections tend to spread to the cheek and down the neck towards the Carotid Artery, which leads blood to your heart.
The spread of tooth infections has been directly linked to heart attack, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimers and numerous other serious conditions. In Dr. Pavlin’s office, it is our goal to help you stay infection free weather it is in your tooth or gums.
