In this episode, the Ask Why team is joined by Barb McClatchie, DDS and Eric Goulder, MD, FACC, of The Heart Attack and Stroke Prevention Center of Central Ohio, and Complete Health Dentistry of Columbus.
Dr. McClatchie and Dr. Goulder share with the hosts how they became interested in the oral systemic connection, and what led them to create their revolutionary collaborative practice. The two discuss signs of inflammation that can be too easily missed if a physician or a dentist is only focused on one part of the patient’s body, as opposed to looking at the system as a whole.
Drs. McClatchie and Goulder additionally detail what they keep track of in order to make sure that a patient’s inflammation is kept in check, and share inspiring stories of having been able to save patients lives due to the nature of their shared practice.
“There’s probably 15 things that we know of for sure that help drive inflammation, and 3 of those things are dental issues. I can get everything else under control, but if those things aren’t under control, I’m not going to be successful in stopping the arterial disease process.” Eric Goulder, MD, FACC
“We’ve learned that 50% of heart attacks and strokes are driven by oral bacteria so where is that bacteria coming from? It’s either coming from infected teeth or infected gums.” Barb McClatchie, DDS
