A Bucks County dentist is working hard to help his patients get help for more health issues beyond their annual dental checkup. Bill Donahue wrote about the local dentist for Suburban Life Magazine.

Robert A. Lantzy, D.M.D., whose office is located at 11 Friends Lane, Suite 100 in Newtown, is using his medical expertise to help people with health ailments related to their dental hygiene.

Considering himself a practitioner of “complete health dentistry,” he checks his patients for issues with their jaws and neck, along with diagnosing issues related to poor sleep and breathing issues.

“We focus on all of you, not just your teeth and gums,” Dr. Lantzy said.

“We do a thorough medical history to learn what other things may be tied to problems expressed in the mouth. We also take each patient’s blood pressure regularly. Why? We have made many people aware of present, dangerously undiagnosed hypertension, uncontrolled diabetes, and breathing disorders.”

Understanding how the mouth is connected to the health of the rest of the body, he works to help improve patients’s smiles and overall health.
