Practice Philosophy
For nearly two decades in Central Florida, Dr. Brian O. Coleman has seen his practice grow exponentially the good old fashioned way – through satisfied patients who have referred family members and friends.
He and his experienced staff offer the latest in comprehensive dentistry in a state-or-the-art facility. In addition to preventative care, the office provides quality aesthetic, implant, and reconstructive dentistry for all ages.
“I’m now witnessing multiple generations of families in our office – grandparents, parents, and their children,” Dr. Coleman said. “That’s the greatest compliment in our profession and practice.”
Dr. Coleman has long understood that oral health is a great determinant of a patients overall heal. Clinical studies show that heart disease, diabetes, respiratory diseases and low birth weight are all linked to oral health. Accordingly, one of the primary elements of his practice is periodontal management.
“The bacteria identified in the oral cavity associated with periodontal disease are also found in patients with heart disease,” said Coleman, who spends time with his patients assessing lifestyle factors such as nutrition and exercise to help them understand this vital connection.
As such, he is involved in the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of patients. This includes, but is not limited to, coordinating care with other medical professionals.
