When it comes to healthy living, we hear a lot about getting in shape and keeping our hearts healthy but often times our teeth and gums take a back seat.

Our dental expert Doctor Christie Leedy is with us today to talk about the best ways to prevent gum disease from being a reality in your life. "As we wind down American Heart Association month it is so important to remember the length of the health of the gums and your overall health but particularly heart disease.", explains Dr. Leedy.

With gum disease, it's like you can, the teeth can look relatively fine and have no pain and yet the bones and the gums are deteriorating and the bacteria is building up underneath the gums.", says Dr. Leedy.
