Now Dentists Can improve overall health and even Save Lives!
By going to the dentist, dental patients are finding they have high Cholesterol or high C-Reactive Protein (two major heart markers), Diabetes, or a variety of other health issues. Dr. Ron Shefdore of Westmont, IL, is the first dentist certified in the U.S. to perform simple moderately complex, in-office, finger stick blood tests on patients who have bleeding gums.He is now recommending that dentists use these tests FDA approved tests instead of going through a lengthy and costly certification like he did. Imagine how much healthier the world would be if all dentists did finger nick blood tests in their practice on a routine basis.
