As we bid farewell to another year and embrace new beginnings, it is a time of celebration and reflection.

New Year's reminds us of the importance of preserving our connections, treasuring remembrances, and embracing the future with hope. May each chapter of the year ahead be filled with adventure, growth, and cherished memories.

Wishing you and your loved ones a joyous New Year filled with good health, happiness, abundance and success.

Sharing with you a precious drawing from my sweet Amelia. This is what makes me grateful for the privilege I have in working with children and my pediatric denticare family!

Your teeth and gums have a wide-ranging impact on your health, from your risk of Alzheimer's, to diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The long-term presence of disease-causing bacteria in the gums and the bloodstream shapes our health well beyond the mouth.

Unfortunately, perhaps the most telling feature of oral health is the most frequently ignored. Periodontitis or deep gum disease, the second most widespread oral disease after cavities, affects more than 47% of adults over the age of 30. By the age of 65 and older, 64% have either moderate or severe periodontitis. Globally, it is the 11th most common disease in the world.

Part of the danger of periodontitis is that it goes undetected in many patients, as it commonly presents with no symptoms. Left unchecked periodontitis can lead to tooth loss, which comes with its own collection of health risks.

Good news is, it is very easy to lower your risk of getting periodontitis, or to treat it to reduce inflammation if you already have it. Every time we brush our teeth we have an opportunity to improve our wider systemic health too.

The problem is detection, due to the disease's often symptomless nature coupled with the common misconception that unless you have severe tooth pain, you don't need to go to the dentist. The solution there is again simple: if you're due a dental appointment, don't delay.
