Dental implants are a terrific alternative for replacing missing teeth and dentures. What I always tell all my patients is that the best implant is their normal natural teeth.

Most people know Whoopi Goldberg well for her many movies and presence on the TV show The View. On show The View, Whoopi relates her recent dental experiences with gum disease and losing teeth.
Whoopi says wisely “If you’re not taking care of your teeth you’re not taking care of your whole body—and it’s killing you!”  !  Readers Digest reported recently that we are twice as likely to die of a heart attack, and 3 times to die of a stroke.  There is also an increased incidence and severity of pneumonia and diabetes!  She also relates that she avoided dental care even though she had good dental insurance.  Dental fear should also not be a deterrent with all of the advances available in dental comfort and sedation!

Preventing  future gum disease and tooth is important to your health..  We suggest you watch!
