As our patient, you'll have access to a comprehensive approach to dental care. Dr. Vanderbrook brings a whole-health philosophy to his work. Oral health is linked to overall systemic health concerns. For instance, gum disease is associated with increased risk for stroke, heart attack, diabetes complications, and other health problems. A healthy mouth is imperative for overall wellness. In addition
, a misaligned bite can cause physical discomfort outside of the mouth. Dr. Vanderbrook will assess your occlusion - how upper and lower teeth fit together - as well as the alignment of your jaw joints, when planning dental work. New fillings, crowns, veneers, and prosthetics must work with existing teeth and occlusion for optimal results - in function and longevity. Dr. Vanderbrook works with talented dental ceramists and use durable, natural looking materials to help patients achieve attractive smiles.
