Oral Disease in Palm Springs, CA
Oral Health and Oral Disease
Oral health impacts overall health. Certain types of oral bacteria and the inflammation they cause are frequently correlated with other diseases, like diabetes, heart disease, complications in pregnancy, and stroke. At the same time, certain diseases and the medications used to treat them can weaken the body’s ability to resist infection or to produce saliva, which aggravates problems with harmful oral bacteria. Therefore, a regular and thorough dental exam by the Tahquitz Dental Group is an important deterrent to oral and bodily disease. Quality dentistry is one part of a lifelong health and wellness plan!
Common Oral Diseases
Uncomfortable and severe oral diseases include fibroma, leukoplakia, lichen planus, mucous membrane pemphigoid, thrush, and oral cancer. Our dental staff at the Tahquitz Dental Group is specially trained to determine the symptoms and early indications of such diseases. We have significant experience in identifying and treating these oral health problems.
Additionally, some diseases that originate in other parts of the body may produce effects that are first noticed in the mouth – such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, HIV/AIDS, osteoporosis, Crohn’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. Regular examinations by the Tahquitz Dental Group help to identify these effects so that our patients get the care they need as soon as possible.
