February is Heart Month, a time to take good stock of your heart health. Cardiovascular disease remains American's No.1 killer, claiming more lives than the rest of major causes of death, says the American Heart Association. Studies have shown a correlation between gum disease and heart disease, showing the importance of good oral health care. Visiting our office regularly can help prevent gum disease or at least catch it in its early stages. And because people with dental insurance are more likely to visit a dentist, a healthy mouth begins with a visit to the office of Drs. Ressler, Hirschl and Lelchuk. In observance of Heart Month, our doctors say it’s also important to know your numbers: BMI (less than 25), blood pressure (less than 120/80), and cholesterol (less than 200). If you have any questions about heart health, or about your treatment with Drs. Ressler, Hirschl or Lelchuk, please give us a call today.
