It’s easy to think that tooth troubles stay in your mouth. The truth is, though, that oral disease can lead to sickness in other parts of the body, too. The latest studies have been showing a strong link between gum disease and cardiovascular disease. That means someone who doesn’t take care of their gums is at a higher risk of heart attacks, heart failure, and chest pain.
At Cascade Endodontics, we make it our business not only to provide our Orem and Provo patients with the expert dental care they need, but to help them feel comfortable in the process. Most of our patients are pleasantly surprised at how little pain they experience getting endodontic treatment from Dr. Jon Jenson.
No doubt you’ve heard that eating too much dessert can expand your waistline. You know that certain kinds of substances are addictive.

Here’s a quick list of foods to avoid and those to include in your diet, for the health of your good old teeth.
Hello! If you’ve been to our blog before, you’ll know the basics of what Dr. Jon Jenson of Cascade Endodontics does. As a board certified endodontist and member of the Utah Association of Endodontics and American Association of Endodontists, Dr. Jenson specializes in diagnosing and treating diseases, infections, and trauma affecting dental pulp and nerves.
Hello, Utah County. I’m Dr. Jon Jenson, a local endodontist. My practice, Cascade Endodontics, serves the Provo, Orem, and surrounding areas with superior emergency dental care, root canal therapy, toothache relief, and endodontic services.
We take root canals pretty seriously around here. While a root canal is sometimes the necessary treatment to save a tooth, we ascribe to the old adage – “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” We hope that our patients pay close attention to their oral health to avoid injury or infection.
