These days, dentists aren't just drilling teeth and cleaning gums. They're also screening for diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer and treating conditions ranging from headaches to snoring.

"We're discovering that the mouth has implications for the whole body," said Elmhurst dentist Ivan Valcarenghi. [...]

This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I love seeing websites that understand the value of providing a quality resource for free. It’s the old what goes around comes around routine.
