It’s no secret that many Alexandria residents dread going to the dentist. Whether they associate dental visits with shame, pain, or financial drain, they avoid it at all costs.
See Your Dentist Regularly to Avoid Painful Oral Problems
However, consider the fact that by seeing your dentist regularly, you can avoid dental procedures like fillings and root canals.
Though it sounds backward, the truth is that you prevent dental pain by seeing your dentist regularly–even if you hate dental visits.
Oral Health Improves Your Quality of Life
In today’s post, let’s focus on the big picture. We want to make the case that twice-yearly dental visits and following your dentist’s recommendations are essential for a high quality of life.
If you have naturally healthy teeth, you may not realize your amazing good fortune. After all, you can eat whatever you want. You aren’t uncomfortable with stained, chipped, or missing teeth. Tooth pain doesn’t interrupt your sleep.
Lucky men and women with great teeth may do fine with limited dental treatment in their twenties and thirties. What we’ve observed, though, is that eventually avoiding exams and cleanings catches up with you.
Do You Have Risk Factors for Oral Problems?
This is especially true for men and women with dental risk factors. These include smoking, recreational drug use, extensive alcohol consumption, inadequate oral hygiene, teeth grinding, poor eating habits, or crooked teeth. Notice that some of these things are a conscious choice, and others, like crooked teeth or teeth grinding may be unavoidable. Regardless, most individuals who forego dental exams and cleanings eventually experience oral conditions.
Gum Disease is The #1 Cause of Tooth Loss in U.S. Adults
The first thing that may come to your mind is tooth decay. While this is a concern for some middle-aged people, it’s actually not the most frequent dental ailment. Gum disease earns the dubious honor as the top cause of tooth loss in U.S. adults.
