Smile Design and Implant Center is pleased to announce comprehensive exams that include watching for indicators of heart health. “Every patient has a periodontal exam as part of prophylaxis (cleaning) or periodontal maintenance. Bleeding upon probing is recorded and this is an excellent indicator of inflammation in the gums, which is directly related to many systemic conditions. This helps us identify overall health issues related to the heart,” says Dr. Edwards. "Oral health can be a strong indicator of overall health. We take a holistic approach with our patients and stress the preventive aspect of oral health.”

Smile Design and Implant Center specializes in innovative, comprehensive dentistry. Dr. Chris Edwards and Dr. Julia Bunker have a combined experience of more than 50 years in dentistry, which allows them to utilize their expertise to provide high quality, technologically advanced dentistry.
