Periodontal Disease in Durango, CO
Medical research has proven that infections in your mouth can cause medical problems associated with other parts of your body including heart, lungs, and brain. These infections which are often silent can also affect nerve development, pregnancy outcomes, and diabetic conditions to name a few.
Our practice is based on a holistic philosophy, that is, what is happening in your mouth can affect the rest of your body. In other words, the fillings, crowns and other dental materials that are in your mouth, along with missing teeth and hidden infections, all play an overall role in your health.
For 26 years Dr. Rothchild has integrated these principles with quality dental restorations that not only look great cosmetically, but also function predictably for many years to come. Your health is very important to us. You are the patient and the guest in our practice. Our main focus on your individual treatment is to help you maintain a healthy mouth and in turn a healthy body. We want you to be an active participant in your own treatment plan. Therefore your final treatment will be finalized with your needs and desires in mind.
