Dental Education & Dental Disease Prevention
As a practice, we are true believers that preventative care and education are the keys to optimal dental health. We strive to provide “dental health care” vs. “disease care”. That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams, and taking x-rays when necessary. We also know that routine cleanings, flossing, sealants, and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease.Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your health. A review of your medical history can help us stay informed of your overall health, any new medications, and any illnesses that may impact your dental health. We also are concerned about your overall health and how your dental health plays a vital role in staying healthy. Conditions such as, diabetes and heart disease can play a huge role in affecting your dental health.
Sleep evaluation is often overlooked during a routine medical appointment
We assess all our patients for the quality of sleep – especially in lieu of the millions of people who suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and other sleep disorders. We feel that this is vital in providing your overall care because “deprivation of sleep”, your body’s resting and healing period, can lead to major health problems such as depression, heart attack, and hypertension to mention a few. Undiagnosed sleep disorders can also affect the control of glucose levels in Type II Diabetics.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a potentially life threatening disorder characterized by repeated pauses in breathing during sleep. Millions of people who suffer from OSA and other sleep disorders are undiagnosed. Dr. Le has specialty training in the treatment of Sleep Related Breathing Disorders, Snoring, and Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Often patients who suffer from sleep disorders may also experience teeth grinding and or jaw pain. Sleep disorders create a serious condition affecting overall health. Dr. Le comprehensive exam includes evaluation and treatment options. This evaluation is often overlooked during a routine medical appointment.
