There is a very important link between cardiovascular disease and periodontal disease. All too often heart attacks and strokes go undetected until it is too late. However, with expert detection, assessment, and prevention strategies, heart attacks and strokes are preventable. If a patient has cardiovascular disease or has risk factors for cardiovascular disease, it is extremely important that the physician and dentist both consider periodontal disease as one of the culprits. Finding a physician who is highly experienced with CIMT and advanced lipid profiling that includes both genetic and inflammatory biomarkers is key to your health and your life..period! No two patients are alike, and experience with a large data set of patients enables one to receive the best outcome and care. Additionally, this physician needs to fully understand all the links with the patient's other medical problems and the complexity of cardiovascular disease. Simply put, the traditional risk factors the world has focused on such as just cholesterol, high blood pressure, family history etc., are hardly the tip of the iceberg. Even if you think you are young and perfectly healthy, you just might want to be sure. Be sure your dentist is also well versed in advanced detection, prevention, and treatment of periodontal disease. Check out drlesliegaskill.com and plaquebusters.net for more information.
