Oral Health Problems Can Be Caught In Early Stages
You may have a hard time knowing exactly when an oral health problem first begins. It may sound strange to think that you can let a cavity’s development go unnoticed, but you might not know there is a problem with a tooth until that cavity has become advanced. In a situation like this, where a problem has been ignored, you could wind up in need of a root canal procedure to fully address the situation! Your dentist wants to help you avoid problems, or at the least put a stop to them before they have a chance to cause complications with your oral health.
Using Digital X-Rays To Spot Problems As They Form
Experience and training allow your dentist to recognize when your smile problems might call for professional treatment. With that said, even well-trained eyes can only look so closely at someone’s teeth! In order to receive more detailed information about your oral health, we do use digital x-rays for more thorough reviews. These examinations can lead to the detection and treatment of tooth decay when a cavity has only just formed. At this point, your tooth can be properly restored with just a discreet dental filling.
Screening And Early Detection For Oral Cancer
At our practice, we are prepared to screen patients for any signs of oral cancer. This disease is a potentially serious threat, and early detection can be important for ensuring a successful treatment. While the goal is obviously to keep you free of any oral health problems, regular checks for oral cancer can be particularly important!
