Even though lots of people are thinking about warm weather and hoping spring will be here soon, the cold weather means it’s important to take precautions to keep yourself healthy and reduce your risk of getting pneumonia and other illnesses. Surprisingly, that means going to your Saugus and North Boston area dentist every six months for check-ups and cleanings!
Recent research has revealed that going to your Saugus, MA dentist for regular six-month check-ups may help reduce your risk of getting pneumonia. This research documents a well-known connection between oral health and overall physical health. By getting regular check-ups and cleanings, your teeth and mouth will be healthy, which will help keep the rest of your body healthy, too.
To help reduce your chances of getting pneumonia this year or any year, be sure to make an appointment with Saugus dentist Dr. Stephen Petinge.
