Your Oral Health

Matters to Your Heart

Valentine’s Day is behind us, but the heart remains on our minds as American Heart Month was observed in February.

Cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and stroke, remains the leading global cause of death with more than 17.9 million deaths each year, according to the American Heart Association.

One way to keep your heart healthy is to keep your mouth healthy. People who have gum disease have two to three times the risk of having a heart attack, stroke or other serious cardiovascular event, according to Harvard Health.

Research suggests the issue is chronic inflammation. Patients who have periodontal disease experience a systemic and localized increase in inflammatory mediators as their body tries to contend with the pathology that causes the gum infection. Inflammation is the source of all chronic disease processes.

Researchers continue to study the connection between gum disease and heart disease/stroke.

The studies to date have been compelling enough that Dr. David DiGiallorenzo and Dr. Henry Hsu treatment philosophy is a zero tolerance for chronic and acute inflammation within the oral cavity.

Dr. DiGiallorenzo and Dr. Hsu offer several approaches to gum disease treatment and management. Their recommended method of mouth detoxification and bacterial infection removal is via LANAP. A laser targets the diseased tissue without harming healthy tissue and eliminates the harmful toxins that destroy gum tissue and bone. The laser then forms a clot and promotes new attachment of the gum to a tooth’s root surfaces.

In some cases, the periodontists may recommend PRGF – Plasma Rich Growth Factor – to promote tissue regeneration. This method uses the patient’s natural blood borne proteins to heal after the procedure. PRGF technology uses specific plasma proteins from the patient’s blood, which are isolated and applied directly during the procedure. These plasma-rich proteins stimulate bone synthesis and help gum tissue to repair quicker. That means faster and more comfortable healing.
