Hello MLDx friends, today I want to share a nice article in Inside Dentistry by our friends Ms. Patti DeMatteis & Dr. Eric Goulder. I will attach the link to this blog post.
“Heart attacks are still the number one killer in our country! Dental Hygiene Excellence and the Heart Attack and Stroke Prevention Center of Central Ohio are so excited to be published in Inside Dentistry this month and get our message out to more of our dental colleagues! As dental colleagues we have such an opportunity to help our patients reduce some very high risk root causes of heart disease! (ie. oral periodontal pathogens, endodontic pathogens and sleep apnea) We can work together with our medical colleagues and help our patients live an active healthy life without the fear of a heart attack, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer’s …. the list of inflammatory diseases goes on and on!! The medical community is asking for help from the dental community! ”
We would love to help our medical and dental colleagues learn how to collaborate and achieve optimal oral and vascular health! Check out www.DHEmethod.com to learn how to provide oral systemic care in your practice!

Also, in this article they mention several bacterial pathogens that are resistant to periodontal therapy…our 11-microbes test will test for those pathogens. https://microbelinkdx.com/frequently-asked-questions/
