Bradley F. Bale, MD, and Amy L. Doneen, MSN, ARNP, co-founders of the Bale/Doneen Method and the Heart Attack & Stroke Prevention Center (www.baledoneen.com), have teamed up with Thomas Nabors, DDS, to author a white paper that addresses the recent statements by the American Heart Association (AHA) and American Dental Association (ADA) on the relationship between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease. The authors believe that a strong association of periodontal disease and vascular disease exists, with the trend for reduced systemic inflammation and improved endothelial health when effective periodontal therapy is achieved.
