🎀💗 Breast Cancer Awareness Month💗🎀
This October, the team at Bruceton Mills Family Dentistry is wearing pink in honor of everyone affected by breast cancer — those who are fighting, those who have survived, those whose memories live on in the hearts of their loved ones, and the family and friends standing beside them. 💕🎗️
🦷 Did you know? New research highlighted by Johns Hopkins Medicine suggests that a bacterium associated with gum disease may play a role in breast cancer development and spread. While more research is needed, it’s another reminder that oral health is connected to overall health!
Remember to schedule your dental visits and stay up to date on recommended breast cancer screenings. Early detection matters! 💗
