HD Microscopy
The oral microscope reveals aggressive bacteria and microbes hiding in the gums, helping guide treatment and prevention.
Hi-Def Microscopy
The Oral Microscope was a staple service at Dr. O'Rielly's practice for many years. He took thousands of samples and hundreds of videos, which he organized into a book called "The Microbiome in your Mouth – How Oral Bacteria Contributes to Heart Disease, Gut Inflammation and Alzheimer's."
Dr. O found very aggressive bacteria and microbes hiding in the gums of over 80% of his patients. These bacteria not only cause gum disease but they leak into the body, gaining access to both the digestive system and blood stream through bleeding gums.
Dr. Evans strongly feels that a microscope evaluation is important before having any dental work or tooth cleanings done, as research shows that any bleeding will cause an increase in bacteria count in the blood.
The good news is that these bacteria can be treated simply and inexpensively with simple home care products and tools. Gum inflammation and even gum disease is often reversible if one knows what to do.
Watching the videos below will make an impression and will no doubt motivate you to take good care of your teeth and gums. It is not only important for the health of your mouth but also for your whole body.
