October Specials At The Center for Natural Dentistry in Encinitas, CA

For Immediate Release: Discover Higher Quality Dental Care at a Recession-Proof Price!

All New Patients During October 2009 Will Receive $50 Off Their First Appointment at The Center for Natural Dentistry in Encinitas, CA (online at http://NaturalDentistry.us)

October 8, 2009 – Did you know that dentistry doesn’t have to be painful? That cavities can be filled without drilling? Did you know you can receive higher quality dental care at a lower price than what you’re used to? Did you know that — even without insurance — your dental checkups don’t have to be expensive? It’s true!

The Center for Natural Dentistry — founded by Encinitas natural dentist Dr. Marvin — is altering perceptions… and providing a special offer for all new patients: $50 off your first visit if scheduled in October 2009!

So how is The Center for Natural Dentistry different (and why should you visit)?

When you visit Dr. Marvin’s dental practice in Encinitas, CA, you won’t see a sterile, cold office. He won’t “drill first, ask questions later.” He doesn’t take needless (expensive) x-rays. He won’t rush you out of the office so he can move on to other patients. He uses the highest quality materials and the most advanced techniques with every patient.

And just because his office is inviting, his techniques advanced, and his materials the highest quality, it doesn’t mean he’s more expensive. In fact, his prices are more affordable than many other dentists’!

The bottom line: When you visit the Encinitas dental practice of Dr. Marvin you will receive higher quality care for a lower price.

So why haven’t you heard about him yet? Because The Center is a new, progressive dental practice in an old, stodgy field.

Most dentists prefer to use outdated, antiquated materials and techniques because it’s what they know. It also provides the highest profit margin. (For instance, did you know there are high and low quality filling materials and you could be receiving low quality but paying high prices? Did you know your dentist doesn’t have to take expensive x-rays every visit?)

The Center for Natural Dentistry is different. The affordable, progressive dental practice in Encinitas, CA provides a stress-free, safe, affordable, effective alternative to traditional dentistry in San Diego County.

“I definitely recommend (The Center for Natural Dentistry). It doesn’t feel like a dentist office and it’s shaping up to be the first positive dental experience I’ve ever had.”

Gum Disease Linked to Rheumatoid Arthritis

As if you needed another reason to take care of your gums and treat gum disease, researchers at Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine and University Hospital of Cleveland have found that treating periodontal disease reduces arthritic pain, swollen joints, and morning joint stiffness in people suffering from arthritis.

The researchers discovered a close biochemical association between microbes in inflamed gums, the toxins they create, and the joints.

“It was exciting to find that if we eliminated infection and inflammation in the gums, then patients with a severe kind of active rheumatoid arthritis reported improvement on the signs and symptoms of that disease,” said Dr. Nabil Bissada, head of the school’s periodontics department, who worked with Dr. Ali Askari, chairman of the department of rheumatology at the hospital. “It gives us a new intervention.”

Gum disease and rheumatoid arthritis are both inflammatory diseases sharing similarities in their progression over time – the soft and hard tissues are destroyed from inflammation caused by toxins from bacterial infection. One toxin from the inflamed areas, called tumor necrosis factor-alpha, is a marker present in the blood when inflammation is present in the body and can initiate new infections or aggravate sites where inflammation already exists.

For patients who already suffer from rheumatoid arthritis, a visit to the dentist to treat any signs of gum disease might lessen the pain and inflammation. For people not currently suffering from arthritis, it’s one more reason to proactively treat and prevent gum disease.

“Again we are seeing another link where good oral health improves the overall health of an individual,” said Bissada.

Heart disease, rheumatic disease, diabetes, respiratory disease, osteoporosis… they all have one thing in common: they are all linked to gum disease. Once again it goes to show that taking proper care of your mouth makes good, common sense for your overall health.

Exposing the truth about gum disease…

Episode 9 of Dangers in Dentistry, originally aired on KPRZ in San Diego.

Gum disease. Periodontal disease. Everyone has heard of it in some form or another (most have heard about Gingivitis). But most of the information you’ve heard is completely wrong!

Did you know that 3 of 4 adults have gum disease? Did you know gum disease can be easily prevented? Did you know surgery is rarely a requirement if you have gum disease?

Get the facts in this episode of Dangers in Dentistry, from America’s Holistic Dentist, Dr. Marvin.
