Hi! I’m Dr. Levi Jurich, a dentist. I can be found at my San Antonio dental practice almost every day treating patients with tooth and gum problems or helping them prevent them. Many common medical conditions pose a risk to oral health.
1) San Antonio diabetes patients with high blood glucose often have a higher risk of dental issues. If you have diabetes, let’s talk. My number is 210-493-3040.
2) A persistent dry mouth due to an inadequate amount of saliva can accelerate tooth decay, cause or contribute to gum disease, and trigger chronic bad breath. Many medications used by thousands of Boerne and Helotes folks, including those for high blood pressure and depression, cause dry mouth. This side effect is not only unpleasant but dangerous. Antidepressants (especially SSRIs) and antipsychotic drugs can also trigger tooth grinding (bruxism).
3) Acid reflux in children and adults is associated with a host of dental problems such as decay and periodontal disease.
I help many Leon Springs dental patients prevent problems associated with medical conditions that sometimes seem unrelated to dental health. Regular professional dental care is essential for oral health, and an important part of your overall physical health.
