How Important Are Regular Dental Check Ups?

dental-check-up

It has been estimated that over 20 percent of the population avoid having a dental check up out of fear. Some sources suggest that those who avoid the dentist may also suffer from poor health in general, which is no surprise given the links between poor oral health and heart disease, strokes, and diabetes, just to name a few.

That’s why our dentists feel so strongly about prevention. This is because it is much easier to maintain a healthy body or fight against the early symptoms of disease than to treat the problem once it’s started. Tooth decay is reversible, but a cavity must be treated. Pre-diabetes is reversible, but diabetes, once you have it, must be managed for the rest of one’s life.

When it comes to dental health and care, our general dentistry in Preston is second to none. You’ll establish a relationship, and our dentist will get to know all your individual requirements, from concerns to allergies. In addition you’ll have a history together.
