There is something called the oral-systemic connection. Basically, the mouth is the gateway to your body, meaning that just by looking at your teeth and gums, Dr. Garrett Mulkey, Dr. Ashley Decker and Dr. Deborah Romack can tell a lot about your overall health. Just by checking the condition of your teeth and gums, they can spot signs that you may develop serious conditions like heart disease, stroke, and diabetes in the future. By catching these problems early, you can start getting the treatment you need even sooner.
At our office, you can get services such as:
- Health programs for children that will have immediate and lifelong benefits.
- A thorough and comprehensive two hour new patient oral-systemic exam for adults.
- Tests and screenings for obstructive sleep apnea, HPV, persistent infections, and candida.
- How to alleviate dry mouth and other common side effects from prescription medications.
- A home sleep study to help screen for sleep apnea.
- Oral appliance therapy to treat sleep apnea and/or snoring.
- An oral cancer screening.
- Constant communication and coordination with any other doctor who is currently giving you treatment.
- Sedation options and counseling to help you overcome dental phobia.
Also, with each and every treatment, we will always keep an eye on the health of your airway. Breathing problems can lead to an endless array of health issues, many of them ultimately proving fatal. With a healthy and open airway, you’ll wake up refreshed and ready to take on the world. At our office, we work to make you an overall healthier person, not just a healthier set of teeth. If you’re ready to feel better than you ever have before, be sure to contact our office today.
