Don’t Like Dental Visits? Go Anyway.

Don’t Like Dental Visits? Go Anyway.

It’s no secret that many Phoenix 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 skip dental procedures like fillings and root canals. Though it sounds backward, the truth is that you avoid dental pain by seeing your dentist regularly–even if you hate dental visits.

ORAL HEALTH IMPROVES YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE

In today’s message, let’s concentrate on the big picture. We want to make the case that twice-yearly dental visits and following your dentist’s counsel is essential for a high quality of life. If you have naturally healthy teeth, you may not value your amazing good fortune. After all, you can eat whatever you want. You aren’t embarrassed by stained, chipped, or missing teeth. Tooth pain doesn’t interrupt your sleep. Lucky people 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 people with dental risk factors. These include smoking, recreational drug use, severe alcohol consumption, negligent 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 people who forego dental exams and cleanings eventually experience oral problems.

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 problem for some middle-aged individuals, it’s actually not the most common dental malady. Gum disease earns the dubious honor as the top cause of tooth loss in U.S. adults.

WE WELCOME NERVOUS DENTAL PATIENTS

If you have neglected your oral care needs, we invite you to make an appointment at Harris Dental. After all, we specialize in making the dental treatment comfortable for nervous patients or those who are self-conscious about the status of their oral health. If you are looking for compassionate dental care, Harris Dental is here for you. Oral conscious sedation is perfectly safe and there are several levels of sedation, so you don’t have to be out cold if you don’t want to be.

LET’S RESTORE YOUR DENTAL HEALTH

At Harris Dental we have so many advanced materials at our disposal to make your smile as beautiful and healthy as it can be. Dental crowns, veneers, implants, teeth whitening, bonding, inlays and onlays, and short-term braces are some of the most popular dentistry procedures in and around Phoenix.

DENTAL CARE AT HARRIS DENTAL IS CONVENIENT AND AFFORDABLE

Many Phoenix residents are surprised to find that most of these procedures are more convenient than they supposed and more affordable than they expected.
