Dental Detectives

Dentists, therapists and hygienists are dental detectives looking for clues regarding general health while examining dental problems.

For example, a sore and painful jaw can be a potential warning of a heart attack. Night time teeth grinding and reflux acid wear are associated with sleep disorders.

Enamel wear from acids and enlarged parotid glands can signal an eating disorder while an extremely dry mouth and uncomfortably dry eyes suggests Sjogren’s Syndrome.

The mouth can be the mirror of your general health. Make an appointment with us at Cameron and Co Dental in Townsville on 4729 5777 and we’ll tell you what we see. We are committed to keeping you happy, healthy and safe.
