Periodontal Disease

Your teeth, your heart.

 

Dentists have suspected that gum disease and cardiovascular disease were related, but only recently was that proven. We test patients who show signs of gum disease for cardiovascular risk. Using a painless, simple finger prick blood test, we’re able to read elevated levels of C-Reactive Protein and refer you to your physician or cardiologist.
