Flushing, NY, United States of America – August 13, 2015 /MarketersMedia/

The World Health Organization (WHO) recently reported dental diseases remain the most common of noncommunicable diseases across the globe. Dental disease treatment remains expensive and, in certain parts of the world, exceeds the entire financial resources set aside for health care. As a result of their findings, the organization recommends people keep their free sugars intake below ten percent of their complete energy intake.

“Dentists have long recognized the connection between the consumption of free sugars and dental caries, and this report emphasizes that connection. The consumption of these sugars often leads to poor dental health and a substantial financial burden throughout the person’s life. Individuals concerned about their dental health due to their consumption of free sugars, or anyone in need of dental care, should contact a Flushing Dentist for a complete checkup today,” Dr. Peter Rumack, founder of Dentist in Flushing NY, declares.

The Centers for Disease Control reports that 17.5 percent of children between the ages of five and 19 have one or more untreated dental caries. Of adults between the ages of 20 and 44, 27.4 percent have one or more untreated dental caries. Heath policy interventions need to focus on limiting sugar intake to prevent the formation of these caries.

“Regular dental care detects problems early and prevents dental complications. Regular care likewise reduces the financial burden of treating dental caries. Many individuals fail to realize that missing or failing teeth lead to numerous problems, including an increased burden on teeth adjacent to those that are failing or missing, accelerated bone loss and bacteria formation in the space remaining when a tooth is lost,” Dr. Rumack continues.

The field of dentistry continues to advance at a rapid pace. Until recently, individuals were limited in their treatment options. With the introduction of dental implants, for example, patients now have an alternative to dentures and bridges. Individuals find they have more treatment solutions than ever before, thus now is the time to visit a dentist to determine what those options are.

“Dental health plays a role in an individual’s overall health and well being. Poor dental health impacts every aspect of a person’s life, affecting their self esteem along with a person’s perception of them. Visit our office today to see how we can provide you with an outstanding smile, one that reflects your true beauty,” Dr. Rumack states.
