Dr. Moon Chow and Dr. Sepehr Jafar-Pour of Woodland Park Dental, serving Cambridge, ON, and the surrounding region, would like to take a moment to stress the importance of general dentistry appointments. They're a way to prevent dental issues in the future and keep your smile bright. Let's discuss some benefits of seeking out preventative dental care.
Prevent Gum Disease
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), gum disease ranks as the leading cause of tooth loss. You can help prevent it by visiting Dr. Chow or Dr. Jafar-Pour for regular general dentistry visits.
During these appointments, your dentist will provide a comprehensive check-up and cleaning. If your dentist in Cambridge, ON, notices early signs of gum disease, the practitioner can intervene and prevent it from worsening.
Keep Your Smile Beautiful
When you visit a dentist for general dentistry, your practitioner will clean your teeth and prevent decay. Ultimately, these tactics will keep your smile healthy, which will in return, help your smile remain bright. Don't forget that the appearance of your smile can affect your self-esteem.
Detect Problems Early
Decay may start as a minor issue. When left untreated, that cavity will continue to grow. Eventually, it can damage your entire tooth. Not to mention, the bacteria that cause the decay may spread to other teeth.
Untreated decay will damage your entire tooth and can lead to your other teeth being damaged severely.
With early detection, the practitioner will intervene early and prevent this from happening.
Get Treatment Before Symptoms Happen
With routine dental care, your dentist detects problems before they cause you any symptoms. Therefore, when your practitioner catches these problems early, you'll receive treatment before you have any issues.
It can also help you get treatments and not delay them.
Learn Proper Care at Home
Taking care of your teeth doesn't just happen in the dental office; it also occurs at home. Therefore, when you visit the dentist for a routine appointment, you'll receive information on how to take care of your teeth properly at home and what habits you can change to better your oral health overall.
