Memory loss – this can sometimes be the result of medications, vitamin deficiencies, and some disorders. 2.

In addition to helping you stay lean and strong, a whole-body workout that includes resistance training will help strengthen your bones. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Osteoporosis and Related Bone Diseases National Resource Center reports that regular exercise is essential for treating and preventing osteoporosis.

Exercising also helps us maintain muscle strength, coordination, and balance, which in turn helps to prevent falls and related fractures.

Since baby teeth just end up falling out, why not let the cavity fall out with the baby tooth? Because some primary teeth will be in your child’s mouth until the age of 12, losing a baby tooth too early due to decay, infection, or accidents can cause other teeth to shift. This could lead to eruption or crowding issues with the permanent teeth. Visiting your child’s dentist every 6 months will help them catch problems when they are small. A filling can be an inexpensive and easy way to maintain good dental health and prevent pain and infection.

Dental implants offer a great way to replace missing teeth and also provide patients with the option of having removable partial or complete dentures. Implants provide excellent support and stability for these dental appliances. Dental implants are artificial roots (titanium) that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone by a dentist or periodontist (a specialist of the gums and supporting bone). The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking and often enhance or restore a patient’s smile! Dental implants are strong and durable and will last many years. On occasion they will have to be re-tightened or replaced due to normal wear.
