If you're considering a full-mouth rehabilitation, it's important to note that it's more than a simple aesthetic transformation; it also helps restore the biology of your entire oral ecosystem. The health of your mouth, teeth, and gums plays an incredibly important role in your overall well-being. Addressing any underlying biological issues and restoring balance improves your systemic health.

Oral Health is Whole-Body Health

The connection between oral and overall health is no secret. There have been many studies that show that untreated gum disease, decayed teeth, and chronic oral infections can lead to serious conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections. A full-mouth rehabilitation addresses these issues head-on to create a healthy foundation that benefits your entire body. Harmful bacteria are kept in check by using restorative solutions like crowns, implants, and periodontal treatments, lowering the risk of broader health concerns.

Gum Disease and Inflammation

Periodontal disease, if left untreated, can lead to tooth loss and even bone deterioration. Dr. Tokunaga focuses on treating inflammation and infection in the gums to halt the progression of gum disease and promote the restoration of healthy gum tissue. 

We take a holistic approach that ensures your oral health and biology are in sync, supporting your smile and overall health.
