Tooth loss and its impact on total health of seniors
 

In the past, the loss of teeth was considered a natural part of the aging process and dentures were considered a normal sign of old age. Dr. Flower firmly believes that these old ideas are not longer true. Keeping your teeth for life is much better for your appearance, comfort and long-term health.

Multiple tooth loss is usually caused by periodontal disease, i.e. gum and bone disease. Periodontal disease has a high statistical correlation with chronic debilitating disease, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and arthritis.

So, it is not very surprising that studies now show a shortened life expectancy by as much as 10 years for persons nationally, and in the Carrollton area, who have lost their natural teeth, when compared to those who have kept their teeth.

Call Jeffrey L Flower DDS at (972) 416-0305 today to learn more about what you can do to keep your teeth for life.
