Dr. Kania and our staff encourage our patients to eat a balanced diet high in fiber and produce. For example, a diet high in whole grains may reduce the risk of developing high cholesterol. A healthy bite with healthy teeth are essential in eating this diet. People that have lost teeth have a hard time getting the nutrients they need. Patients should be mindful of their saturated fat consumption as well. We encourage our patients to live an active lifestyle and incorporate aerobic exercise into their lives on a regular basis. Smokers lose more teeth than non-smokers. Their treatment is not as successful. Do not smoke!
We invite our patients to discuss their overall health with us, especially patients with periodontal or heart disease. To schedule an appointment with our Encinitas dentist office, contact us at (760) 642-0711. We serve patients from La Costa, Del Mar, Rancho Santa Fe, Encinitas, San Diego, and the neighboring communities.
