What Are The Benefits of Wellness Dentistry? A Holistic Approach From La Costa Dental Excellence
Did you know that what might be hiding in your mouth could affect your entire body’s general wellness? At La Costa Dental Excellence in Carlsbad, CA, we believe that your dental health is the gateway to your overall well-being. This philosophy drives our dedication to wellness dentistry. It’s a comprehensive approach that considers your entire medical history, not just the health of your gums and teeth. As our trusted Registered Dental Hygienist of 15 years, Stacey, says, “We don’t just look at patients for just a cleaning. We look at their whole body. We look at their entire medical history, their health and how it relates to their overall dental health.”
Why Is Wellness Dentistry Important?
You deserve a dental care experience that sees beyond your smile. At its core, wellness dentistry is about preventive care, catching potential problems early to avoid more serious health consequences later. Wellness dentistry integrates your whole body health into the equation, acknowledging that periodontal disease is linked to 57 systemic conditions like heart disease and diabetes. Stacey often reminds us, “You can never have a healthy body if your mouth is not healthy. And so you don’t know if you have a healthy mouth until you test to see if you have a healthy mouth.” At La Costa Dental Excellence, we know that you’re more than just a set of teeth, and we want to keep the whole ‘you’ as healthy as possible.

Regular evaluations and bacterial testing serve as a solid foundation for safeguarding both your oral and systemic health. At our Carlsbad office, located at 7730 Rancho Santa Fe Rd, #106, we picture a world where everyone has access to a healthier lifestyle, starting with a healthy mouth. One Carlsbad resident commented, “I feel like I’ve been heard here. They look at my health as a whole, which has made a difference in my life.”
