February is American Heart Month, from Advanced Dental Concepts

You may remember our post from last week, when we discussed February being "National Dental Health Month." But did you know February is also American Heart Month? It’s a great time to take good stock of the health of your heart, say Drs. Faulkner and Spurlock. Cardiovascular disease remains American's No.1 killer, claiming more lives than the rest of major causes of death, according to the American Heart Association. Studies have shown a correlation between gum disease and heart disease, underscoring the importance of good oral health care.

Visiting our office regularly can help prevent gum disease or at least catch it in its early stages. And because people with dental insurance are more likely to visit a dentist, a healthy mouth begins with a visit to Advanced Dental Concepts. In observance of Heart Month, we also know it’s vital to know your numbers: blood pressure (less than 120/80), cholesterol (less than 200) and BMI (less than 25). If you have any questions about heart health, or about your treatment at our Pace, Florida office, please give us a call today.

February Marks National Dental Health Month at Advanced Dental Concepts

Did you know February is National Dental Health Month? It's a great time of the year to renew those resolutions about continuing to practice great dental hygiene at home and by visiting Advanced Dental Concepts. Today, we thought we'd discuss the importance of preventative oral care. While most people are familiar with traditional heart-saving practices such as eating healthy and exercising regularly, lesser-known are the benefits that great oral hygiene provides to one’s cardiovascular health.

Here are a few tips to help you continue those New Year's resolutions:

*Remember that poor oral hygiene is linked to serious common diseases such as cardiovascular disease, bacterial pneumonia and osteoporosis.

*Brush and floss every day to remove the plaque that can lead to cavities. Flossing daily removes food debris that your toothbrush cannot reach after meals.

*Replace your toothbrush on a regular basis. You should replace your toothbrush every three to four months or after a cold or illness to prevent re-infection. Remember to use a soft toothbrush so you won’t wear off the enamel of your teeth.

*Visit our Pace, Florida office regularly. The American Dental Association recommends you visit Drs. Faulkner and Spurlock every six months for regular checkups and cleanings. Fluoride treatments twice a year will help prevent tooth decay.


Each February (and all-year round), our team at Advanced Dental Concepts focus on the preventive oral care of our patients. Have you visited our office the past six months? If not, it’s time to give us a call and schedule an appointment!
