Inflammatory, Autoimmune & Pain -Related Conditions

For individuals managing autoimmune, inflammatory, or chronic pain conditions, I adapt care to support you through flare-ups and shifting needs—whether that means adjusting techniques, pacing, or recommending gentle, supportive alternatives when brushing or traditional care isn't feasible.

How Autoimmune and Pain-Related Conditions Affect Oral Health

Chronic pain and autoimmune conditions can significantly impact both systemic and oral health. Compromised immune function increases susceptibility to periodontal disease and opportunistic oral infections, while ongoing inflammation and bacteremia from oral pathogens may further aggravate systemic conditions—intensifying the risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other inflammatory disorders.
This bidirectional relationship highlights the critical role of oral care in managing whole-body health.

How I Can Support You

Autoimmune and chronic pain conditions often make daily routines—including oral hygiene—more difficult.
I recognize that symptoms can fluctuate, and care needs to adapt accordingly. That’s why I prioritize individualized treatment plans with flexible goals.
Strategies are tailored to your current energy levels, immune status, and functional capacity—ensuring that every recommendation is not only effective, but realistic and sustainable for where you are today.
