Florida Center for Cosmetic Laser Gynecology Supports Safewalk for Women

Florida cosmetic gynecologist Dr. Mark Scheinberg, a member of the Ultimate Makeovers Team, will participate in the Safewalk Run 5K on October 30th. The 12th annual Safewalk benefits Women in Distress, a non-profit group that provides safe shelter and critical services to families affected by domestic violence.

The event is timed and awards are given to top finishers as well as incentives for top fundraisers. All walkers and runners are asked to raise $200; the walk’s goal is to raise $100,000. The event will be attended by the Miami Dolphin Cheerleaders and organizers expect more than 1,200 people to participate.

Dr. Scheinberg is running in the race and he has also helped to sponsor the event. “At the Ultimate Makeover Team we want to use our resources to help less fortunate individuals and the community as a whole,” said Dr. Scheinberg, a Florida cosmetic gynecology provider.”Sponsoring the Safewalk helps to fulfill both goals.”

Dr. Scheinberg is part of the Ultimate Makeover Program, in which Florida’s best doctors and health practitioners go beyond changing people’s looks to transforming their lives. The Ultimate Team will help the less fortunate through community activism and fundraising corporate partnerships as well as through cosmetic procedures.

Each year the Ultimate Makeover Team will perform a makeover for a deserving member or members of the community at no cost to the participant. The makeover may include cosmetic dentistry, plastic surgery, laser eye surgery, and personal training. Makeover recipients will be chosen from local charities and the community. The Ultimate Team also helps through community activism and corporate partnerships to raise money for charity. This year’s charity is Women in Distress.

South Florida Cosmetic Dentist Notes How Oral Health Affects the Whole Body

People tend to think of beautiful straight teeth as a purely cosmetic concern – a luxury rather than a necessity. However, teeth that are crooked, stained, or have other problems can cause physiological problems in the rest of the body or can be an indicator of other health problems.

“Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean properly, potentially leading to tooth decay, gum disease, and tooth loss,” notes Dr. Charles Nottingham, a Miami dentist and Fort Lauderdale dentist.”A bad bite can also cause abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, poor speech, and excessive stress on the jaw bone and gum tissue.”

Poor bites can also influence chewing and swallowing and food selection – leading to nutritional problems. Pain in the jaw or teeth can lead to pain in the head, neck, shoulders, or elsewhere in the body. Oral pain often leads to diminished activity, lost work days, depression, sleep problems, and missed school for children.

“In addition, problems with your teeth can be an indicator of whole-body health issues,” points out Dr. Nottingham, a South Florida cosmetic dentist.”Scientific research indicates a link between gum disease and many other overall health problems including: high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, premature births and many more.”

Sometimes teeth can reveal a previously unknown health condition. Conditions that can be detected in the mouth include diabetes (causesgum infections), acid reflux (teeth are much more prone to decay), some auto-immune disorders (the soft tissue in the mouth and salivary glands can be affected), liver diseases (the soft tissue in the mouth is jaundiced) and many more.
