We should not put off visiting the dentist because teeth are a very important organ of our body. If we don’t keep an eye on their health, we can face many problems. And this is not only directly related to the dento-mandibular system, but also to the work of some organs of the body, as well as to our psychological state.

Miks ei tohiks hambaarsti külastusega viivitada?

Kui te oma hambaid praegu ei ravi, läheb see tulevikus palju kallimaks. Seega, tegeledes probleemiga täna, säästate pikemas perspektiivis raha.

A simple example. Untreated caries turns into pulpitis, the price for endodontic manipulations is higher. Missed this stage – the peri-dental tissues are affected, up to catastrophic destruction of the crown, infection of the root, loosening of the unit and, as a consequence, extraction.

To delay dental treatment is to increase the risk of losing a dental unit. Restoration will require more time, more complex and expensive technologies and the work of a highly qualified specialist. Replacing a tooth (prosthetics, implantation) will cost much more than treating it at the initial stage, it may also require additional examinations, time, frequent visits to the dentist, visits to related doctors, in general, it all depends on the clinical condition.

There is one more factor why you should not postpone a visit to the dentist – materials are getting more expensive, no matter how trivial and annoying it sounds.

Signs that you need to see a dentist

It’s worth scheduling a visit to the dentist in the following cases:

• toothache (any);
• increased sensitivity of enamel to temperature irritation, sour, sweet;
• a filling has fallen out;
• a chipped tooth;
• bleeding gums;
• bothered by breath odor;
• swollen cheek (flux);
• discoloration of the enamel;
• the roots are exposed.

These are just some of the reasons why you should not delay dental treatment.

How often you should visit the dentist

The frequency of dental visits depends on the condition of our teeth and gums. It is generally recommended to visit the dentist every six months for a preventive checkup and professional teeth cleaning. However, if you have any oral health problems, you may need more frequent appointments.

Timely treatment saves teeth

Timely treatment helps to keep your teeth healthy and prevent the development of serious diseases. Therefore, you should not delay a visit to the dentist, even if you feel well. It is better to check your teeth regularly and prevent possible problems.

Many diseases run imperceptibly, only an experienced dentist can suspect their presence by a number of signs. Missing this point, the disease begins to progress.

It is also worth remembering that the situation when we drink painkillers, dulling the toothache, is not a solution. The pain may subside, but the disease will progress to another stage, to chronic, imperceptibly destroying soft and hard tissues of the dentoalveolar system.
