A member of Iris Dental Group’s team will examine your mouth at the start of every dental examination and professional teeth cleaning appointment. Among the things they will be looking out for are early signs of gum disease, cavities, and maybe oral cancer. Instead of waiting until the illnesses have advanced, dental professionals can treat these conditions more successfully and often for less money when they are detected and treated in their early stages. For instance, instead of requiring oral surgery to cure gum disease if it is discovered before it progresses to periodontal disease, a comprehensive professional cleaning may be all that is needed to address the condition.

Studies conducted in the field of professional dentistry indicate a close connection between a patient's physical and dental health. If you don't take care of your teeth, you might acquire problems like gum disease and infections that could have been easily prevented with proper oral hygiene that could affect other areas of your body, including your heart.
