RAPID CITY SMILES IMPLANT & FAMILY DENTISTRY
Rapid City Smiles: Implant & Family Dentistry prides themselves on being a one-stop approach to dentistry. “Our practice is designed to provide a full- spectrum of dental services under one roof,” said owner Dr. Dan Graves . Their mission is to provide transformative dentistry that enhances lives, preserves health, and builds confident smiles. Dental health is extremely important, says Graves, because the mouth is truly the gateway to the entire body. “Unfortunately, what happens in the mouth doesn’t just stay in the mouth,” he said. “Inflammation, infection, and bacteria associated with gum disease have been linked to serious health conditions such as– but not limited to–heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and even Alzheimer’s disease.” Oral health is often an indication of someone’s overall health, which is why taking care of the mouth is so much more than “having a pretty smile.”
