Osteoporosis/Arthritis

Our dental team is committed to staying abreast of the current dental research in the interest of good health. We wish our patients to be aware of the most current research regarding periodontal health, heart disease, pulmonary infections, diabetes, chronic infections and other health related issues.

Periodontal disease may play a role in promoting osteoporosis. With tooth loss there is a decrease in proper digestion, nutrition and calcium uptake.
