Perio 1st

Oral health optimisation is the most important thing in controlling inflammation within the mouth.
Plaque bacteria 🦠 cause the inflammation and this then can have affects on systemic health.
Studies show that 50-90% of patients with periodontitis (gum disease ) have at least one systemic condition like cardiovascular disease.
So periodontal screening has never been more important.
If you think this may affect you talk to your dental professional at your next appointment.
