Why a regular dental check up is so important

Our teeth and smile have a very important role in our
daily functions and social life, therefore we should
pay more attention to our Oral Health.
But we still often neglect to visit the Dentist unless
we are in pain. This is when the “prevention is better
than cure” role comes into play. Many dental issues
are painless and invisible to us when we look in the
mirror.
Surprisingly, even when we brush and floss our teeth
regularly, some of the smaller areas are missed,
allowing for the build-up of plaque and tartar causing
cavities to form.
Many of us are unaware we are suffering with gum
disease as again there are often no visible signs.
Careful and regular cleaning of teeth and gums can
help prevent this. With early diagnosis and treatment,
unecessary tooth loss can be prevented.
Take care when choosing a Dentist, find one that can
offer their professional and honest opinion on what
would be the best treatment suited to you in the
longterm and that has the equpment available to
check and monitor each to your teeth individually, as
prevention is very important.
