Don’t Ignore Gum Disease: It Could Be A Matter of Life or Death Says Hoover AL Dentist

Birmingham, United States – September 26, 2021

Stuart Curry, owner and founder of Stuart Curry Dentistry Birmingham, is urging his patients to ensure that they book a regular six-month checkup so that their teeth and gums can be examined for any sign of decay or gum disease. Gum disease, in particular, is something that has been identified as a significant cause for concern by dentists in recent years, as there appears to be increasing evidence that there is a link between gum disease and heart problems.

Chief Executive of the British Dental Health Foundation, Dr. Nigel Carter, explains: “The link between oral health and overall body health is well documented and backed by robust scientific evidence. Despite this, only 1 in 6 people realizes that people with gum disease may have an increased risk of stroke or diabetes. And only 1 in 3 is aware of the heart disease link.”

“I entered the field of dentistry to make a difference to people’s lives, and I am just as passionate about that now as I was when I first entered the industry,” said Dr. Stuart Curry of Stuart Curry Dentistry Birmingham. “While a lot of my work involves the treatment of patient’s teeth and gums, I also believe that I have a responsibility to educate and inform my patients, which is something I take very seriously. Ignoring gum disease could have serious consequences both inside the mouth and for your overall health. I do not believe and statistics would support the fact that the majority of the general public are unaware of the link between gum disease and heart problems. That is why I am committed to telling as many people as possible in a drive to improve the dental and general health of my patients.”
