FAIRFIELD, OH - In dentistry, technology is constantly advancing and it is vital to remain on the cutting edge. Remaining up-to-date with constant advancements, Dr. Andrew Dine, Fairfield family dentist, is excited to offer digital x-rays for improved patient care. Transitioning from film to digital, Dr. Dine offers his patients a better diagnosis tool to aide in treatment planning of various dental conditions. The use of digital x-rays allows Dr. Dine, family dentist in Fairfield, to view a patient's x-rays immediately, right in front of them. With digital x-rays, film is replaced with a flat electronic pad or sensor.

This image can then be stored on the computer or printed out. "My patients can now benefit from advanced technology to aide in faster, proper diagnosis and treatment. Digital x-rays allow me to show my patients their results right there, without having to wait for another visit.

Maintaining good oral hygiene is not only essential for the prevention of bad breath, cavities, and gum disease. Research has now shown that there is a strong correlation between gum disease and heart disease. The same plaque that accumulates on your teeth can lead to a heart attack or stroke. If you think about it, daily brushing, flossing and regular check-ups aren't just about saving your teeth- it's about protecting your cardiovascular system and even saving your life. What is the Connection?During the stages of gum disease, bacteria and toxins from infected gums may access our bloodstream and travel to the heart. According to one theory, when the bacteria travel into the blood stream, it attaches to fatty plaque in the coronary arteries, which are the blood vessels of the heart. In heart disease, the arterial walls thicken with this buildup, and the result can lead to clot formations and blockages.Studies have shown that the bacteria within the plaque found on our teeth, is the same bacteria that are found in the plaque, which builds up along the inner walls of the coronary arteries of patients suffering from coronary artery disease. More simply put, the bacteria that builds...more
