Important event for Lakeview Community and all Calgary

This March we want to create a special event in the Lakeview Community in SW Calgary, everyone is welcome to attend and learn how to live a better and longer life! We all know that our mouth is not a separate part of our bodies, but an integrated and important part in our bodies. Though some people tend to ignore their oral health and other specialists see oral health issues as being mostly independent from your general health, this is not the case. Your oral health problems are general health problems, because an inflammation in your oral cavity, if not treated and ignored, will certainly cause other health issues. We invite

Are your teeth killing you?

The best way to stay healthy is to prevent disease. Oral systemic health refers to the connection between oral health and overall health. Countless studies have demonstrated a link between poor oral health and systemic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis, some forms of cancer, risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, such giving birth to a pre-term or low-birth weight baby. Since heart attacks are the biggest killer in North America and stroke is the biggest cause for disability, preventing these diseases deserves our full attention. Statistics show that today over 50% of Americans over 30 yrs. old have gum disease and it increases to 70% in adults

How can gum disease influence your general health?

DID YOU KNOW? Many diseases are linked to your oral health, including heart disease, osteoporosis, oral cancer and diabetes. Gum disease begins when plaque adheres at and below the visible edge of your gums. If plaque is not removed every day by brushing and flossing, it hardens into tartar (also called calculus). Tartar promotes a bacterial infection at the point of attachment. In these early stages, gum disease is called gingivitis.   What if I am already in the early stages of gum disease? If you have gum disease, getting rid of plaque and tartar gives your gums a chance to get better. That’s why in the early stages of gum

The important things you need to know about the symptoms, risks and identification of oral cancer

Worldwide, more than 450,000 cases of oral cancer are found each year. When discovered early, there is an 83 percent survival rate. But when undetected and allowed to progress, that rate drops to 32 percent. Because oral cancer is not easily detected, Lakeview Dental Centre uses the most powerful tool available today for assisting in the discovery of oral abnormalities: the VELscope Vx. Recognized by the World Health Organization, VELscope Vx is a device that painlessly and effectively detects oral abnormalities within two minutes. To date, more than 10 million examinations have been performed using the technology. Early indicators of oral cancer Often painless, the physical symptoms of cancer in the
