At The Denture and Implant Clinic, patients can work with a team of providers who can assist them in achieving beautiful, healthy smiles. However, patients who have dental phobia may be avoiding visiting their dentist for treatments. Avoiding routine examinations and other important appointments are the fast track to more problems over time.
The most nervous patients typically have the worst teeth because they do not attend their regular dental visits for cleanings and examinations. They often only visit the dentist when things have gone wrong, and sometimes when they have become a more complex issue. These concerns are often harder and more expensive to treat if not caught early enough. If patients visit regularly, these issues can be avoided entirely with preventative dental services.
Some of the most common preventative services include:
- Cleanings
- Examinations
- Fillings
Instead of avoiding the dentist, patients should visit a dentist for nervous patients such as and his staff. Dental anxiety doesn’t have to keep patients from taking good care of their smile. Our professionals work directly with patients to help them understand how they can avoid periodontal disease and dental decay. Visiting the dentist more often allows patients to take a more proactive approach in regards to their oral health. The cost of preventative services is a lot cheaper than dealing with bigger problems when they arise. Many issues can be caught early enough for the dentist to intervene and keep the issue from causing irreversible damage. This is incredibly important when it comes to the bone of the jaw, which is the foundation for the natural adult teeth. Conditions such as periodontal disease can cause the gum tissues and bone to shrink and the natural teeth to fall out of the mouth and require replacement.
