An alternative to dental insurance providing excellent dental care with generous discounts
We understand that not everyone enjoys visiting the dentist, and some people have a real fear or phobia. We strive to make every patient as comfortable as possible. There are at least a dozen reasons regular dental care can be beneficial to your life. Regular dental visits will improve your appearance, health and overall quality of life by providing the following benefits:
From the time you get your first tooth, bacteria begin working to eat away at your teeth. Tooth decay can ruin the enamel and tooth structure, and it may lead to serious tooth infections. Routine dental visits can catch tooth decay before it causes too much damage to the tooth, protecting your smile.
The gums are vital part to support the teeth and need routine care to be healthy. Routine dental cleanings at least twice a year can brighten your smile and protect gum health thereby preventing periodontal or gum disease, the leading cause of tooth loss.
The cleaning process can remove stains and discoloration from your teeth to make your smile brighter. In addition, for even whiter teeth, you can opt for professional teeth whitening services to bleach your teeth to be several shades whiter.
Tooth infections and abscesses occur when bacteria reach the internal and live areas of a tooth. Not only are tooth infections painful, but they can put your health at risk. Oral infections can spread to other areas of the body. In severe cases, an infected tooth could cause sepsis.
Halitosis, or chronic bad breath, is often caused by dental disease. Tooth decay, tartar, gum disease and other oral health issues are main causes of bad breath. Even brushing, mouthwash, mints and gum cannot hide bad breath caused by poor oral health. Regular checkups, cleanings and dental treatments remove the bacteria that causes embarrassing bad breath.
Periodontal disease afflicts an estimated 50% of adults over 30 creating a higher risk of stroke and other cardiovascular problems. Routine dental visits and cleanings can help prevent gum disease and lower risks of cardiovascular disease.
The first segment of your digestive system is the mouth. Chewing your food thoroughly breaks down your food and puts less stress on your esophagus, stomach and intestinal system during the digestive process. When you have healthy teeth, you can eat the foods that are good for your digestive and overall health.
Bone and tissue create the contours and angles of your face through the teeth and jawbone thereby playing a significant role in your appearance. If teeth are lost, it can result in deterioration of the jawbone and the face can appear sunken, creating an older appearance. Even if you lose teeth, dental implants can provide similar bone stimulation as natural teeth to retain your facial structure.
Teeth are crucial for creating proper speech. When front teeth are lost, it can change the way you speak. Lisps, whistles and irregular sounds are common when people lose their teeth. Regular visits to your dentist can prevent tooth loss that can affect your speech. If you already have lost teeth we have many different options for improving your speech such as:
Dull, damaged, poorly placed or missing teeth can create an older or embarrassing appearance. Our dental specialists can help you rejuvenate your smile and your facial structure.
The majority of people over the age of 50 have lost at least one tooth – many people lose all their teeth by the time they reach 60 years of age. Regular dental care combined with good personal oral hygiene can prevent most types of tooth loss.
Oral and overall health are intricately linked. Your oral health can impact your digestive, cardiovascular and other systems in the body. Caring for your teeth can make a major impact on your mental and physical health, which is why it should be a top priority in your wellness routine.
