Empathetic Dentistry for a Healthier Heart

At ConfiDENT, we recognize the vital link between oral health and cardiovascular well-being. Emerging research indicates that maintaining good oral hygiene is not only essential for a bright smile but also for a healthy heart. Our compassionate team is dedicated to helping you understand this connection and providing expert care to support both your oral and cardiovascular health.

The Connection Between Oral Health and Heart Health

Gum Disease and Heart Disease

Bacteria that live in the mouth can cause tooth decay and infection that may spread to other parts of your body, like your heart, and could lead to heart conditions.

Inflammation and Atherosclerosis

Chronic inflammation from gum disease may contribute to the development of atherosclerosis, the narrowing of arteries due to plaque buildup, increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Blood Pressure Complications

A 2018 study in the American Heart Association journal Hypertension found that gum disease appears to worsen high blood pressure and interferes with medications to treat hypertension.
