Your mouth is the entrance to your body. By design, everything in the mouth has a pathway into your body, by breath, by swallowing, or by blood. So its no wonder that modern science is constantly revealing new and stronger links between oral health and overall health. A healthy mouth establishes a firm foundation for your overall health, while disease in the mouth undermines your health from all sides. Your overall health and longevity is our top priority, and Los Gatos dentist Dr. Nancy Nehawandian is thoroughly trained on the links between overall health and oral health, and she knows when and how to work cooperatively with your medical doctor.
