Poor gum health can lead to gum disease, and gum disease can lead to problems throughout the body, including heart disease. Now, recent research from the National Institute on Aging suggests that gum disease may also cause Alzheimer’s. Read more: ... https://www.frankdds.com/does-gum-disease-cause-dementia/ See more

Could good oral health prevent severe cases of COVID-19? "In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, dentistry has a particularly important role to play in keeping the oral cavity healthy. Dental prophylaxis strengthens the immunocompetence at the point of entry of the virus and helps to avoid infection or to mitigate its course. A healthy oral cavity is a barrier against a wide range of diseases in normal circumstances and this remains true, notes Dr Frankenberger, in the c...ase of COVID-19 which studies have suggested may take a more severe course where good oral hygiene has not been maintained."

After Dr. Frank had completed my dental procedure, I was overwhelmingly thrilled with my results and so proud of my new smile! My teeth are very natural looking, and once again, smiling is something I can be very proud of. - Susan

Top of the line dental care. . . - by Denise P. I've always received great attention and care from all of Dr. Frank's hygienists, and his care and treatment is always the best. Dr. Frank and his team know me well and they understand I am not fond of change. But with life's challenges in times of pandemic, I was welcomed by a new hygienist last week whose name is Kat. From the moment we met, Kat put me at ease with her lovely personality, knowledge of dental care, and new tech...nology she suggested that would make my visits even more comfortable. She was right. She is also top of the line and skilled in her treatment of patients. Thank you, Dr. Frank, for consistently seeking out the best of the best in hygienists for your practice, and for ensuring I always have a peaceful dental visit. You, kind sir, are still a lifesaver and I am forever grateful for your dental care. See more of our patient reviews here: https://rwl.io/3japEyv
