Good Bugs
Special Report: The REAL problem with Antibiotics: Oral Probiotics & Prebiotics
The Problem...
Your teeth and/or gums have disease right now (decay, periodontal disease, root canal infection, etc.), and there are up to 1 Billion bacteria in the infected areas. Our mouths are supposed to have millions of good bacteria, but when the bad overrun the good, the problem gets worse, even when we use mouthwash, or brush and floss.
Why Antibiotics are NOT the solution
What you can do to boost your health and maximize your treatment
Other benefits of probiotics
- Prevent bad plaque. A reduction in the destructive bugs that accumulate and reproduce around your teeth every minute.
- Fight bad breath.
- Prevent oral cancer.
- Manage symptoms of gingivitis and decrease inflammation from gum disease.
- Enhance digestion of foods.
- Increase sinus, nasal and throat health.
Prebiotic Diet
Drink plenty of water, and avoid soft drinks, diet drinks and sugar-rich foods more than once per day. These feed infected bacteria and delay healing.
Also eat foods that are rich with resilient starches and indigestible fiber, which feed the good bacteria to grow in our bodies. These foods are called “prebiotics,” and include: Oats, bananas (not too ripe), sweet potatoes, legumes such as beans and peas, green vegetables, avocados and cooked rice.
Follow up care
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to return for follow up appointments. Your follow up visit cost is $55, but this fee is waived as long as you give us at least 48 hours if you need to reschedule. We will always review any new charges BEFORE we begin any further treatment.
