At Fresh 32 Family Dentistry, we understand it can be hard to feel confident about visiting a dentist when you haven't seen one in years! Whether financial stress, a hectic schedule, shame, or anxiety has kept you from the dental chair, we want you to know that it's never too late to reclaim your oral health and get it back on track.
Avoiding the dentist can result in a vicious cycle: You may feel bad or embarrassed about the state of your mouth, so you may not visit the dentist, leading to more problems that make you feel worse. On and on it goes.
It's time to break the cycle; we're here to help! Whether it's been five, ten, or 15 years since you've been to the dentist, Dr. Khurram Lalani and his team provide a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free environment where we'll meet you where you're currently at, understand your goals for the future, and create a treatment plan to get you there that's comfortable for your needs, budget, schedule, and lifestyle.
The first step is to book an evaluation with our dentist so we can assess your oral health, learn more about your needs, and create your personalized treatment plan.
3 Consequences of Avoiding the Dentist We Can Help With
Missing your routine preventive teeth cleanings and exams can impact your oral and overall health over time. Here are three problems that can arise.
Gum Disease — This is an infection of the bone and soft tissues that support your teeth. When your gums aren't healthy, your teeth are at risk. Besides destroying your teeth's foundation and resulting in tooth and bone loss, gum disease also contributes to inflammation that causes problems like heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and dementia.
Tooth Decay — Tooth decay can cause sensitivity and make it difficult to chew your food comfortably. If it's ignored, it can travel into the roots of your tooth and cause a painful infection.
Infection — If a tooth becomes infected, it can become quite painful. Without treatment, it could result in tooth loss and the infection spreading to other critical areas of the body, like the brain.
At Fresh 32 Family Dentistry, we offer effective gum disease treatment and root canals to eliminate infection and protect your smile. We even offer dental sedation with nitrous oxide to help ease anxiety if needed.
