information that follows.

- There are 100,000,000,000,000 bacteria per mouth.
- There are over 700 different types.
- Most are harmless and/or helpful.
- There are a “Dirty Dozen” which are considered pathologic
bacteria.
Oral Infections
- Excessive and untreated Biofilm production (Plaque) has been
link to tooth decay.
- Gingivitis and periodontis (Periodontal Disease) has also
been linked to Plaque build up.
Endocarditis
- Excessive Oral Bacteria build up can create pathways to
infection in other parts of the body including the heart.
- Resulting Bacterial Endocarditis can lead to a need for a
prosthetic heart valve of death.
Oral Cancer
- Approximately 31,000 Americans are diagnosed with Oral
Cancer each year claiming 9,000 lives.
- The five year survival rate is 57%
- If caught early, the survival rate is 81%.
- A “Brush Biopsy” and Oral exam can save your life and
prevent costly treatments.
Diabetes
- There is emerging evidence of the association and direct
link to periodontal disease to glycemic control.
- Preliminary results show that people with diabetes who have
their teeth cleaned professionally four times per year can
better manage their blood glucose levels.
- Every 1 point reduction in HbA1c reduces risk of diabetic
complications to the eye, kidney, and nerves by 40%.
There are more health benefits and positive side effects
associated with good oral hygiene than outlined here. But a plan of
regular cleanings and exams by a dental professional can result in
overall better health. Resulting increases in worker productivity
and decreased absenteeism often means a dental plan can save a
company money. Let us explain!
