1. Oral health problems don’t improve without treatment.
In fact, most conditions only get worse. When you identify and treat problems with your teeth and gums in the early stages, you stop the progression of decay or disease and avoid unnecessary pain and cost.

2. You may be tired of hearing it but flossing is important.
Do you floss your teeth about as often as you change the oil in your car? There’s a reason why you hear, “floss,floss, floss,” at the dentist’s office. Toothbrushes can’t remove food between your teeth; you need to floss for this. If the food isn’t removed, you’re more likely to have tooth decay and gum disease.

3. In most cases, it’s better to have a root canal than to pull the tooth.
Many people avoid root canals because they have unwarranted fear of the procedure, which today is relatively pain-free. In removing the tooth’s decayed pulp and treating the underlying infection, the tooth can be preserved. Pulling a tooth may seem easier, but it will likely cost more to replace the missing tooth with an implant or bridge.

4. Choose the dental implant.
If you lose a tooth, a dental implant is a better option than a crown. Why? because a crown requires removal of a portion of the teeth on either side of the empty tooth socket. An implant is attached to the jaw bone, leaving other teeth in their original condition.

5. It’s pointless to have cosmetic dentistry without first treating oral health conditions.
The popularity of cosmetic dentistry is skyrocketing. Advanced procedures work wonders in approving the appearance of your smile. But they shouldn’t be performed if you have untreated tooth decay or gum disease.
