Don’t wait until you’re in pain to call us!
Most people only go to a dental office when they have pain they can’t stand. But it is not necessary to wait until the last moment. It is best to go in time to avoid serious consequences.
Some signs that you need to go to the dentist are:
- Sensitivity to hot or cold foods or drinks: May indicate tooth decay or gum problems.
- Red or inflamed gums: It can be due to gingivitis that, if not treated, leads to Periodontitis, a serious infection of the gums.
- Bleeding gums when brushing teeth: Sensitivity or irritation may be due to bacterial plaque and gingivitis.
- Halitosis (bad breath): May indicate an abscess or infection.
- Loose teeth: Receding gums or periodontitis can cause teeth to fall out.
Constantly dry mouth: Saliva helps to prevent cavities by removing food debris and plaque. Lack of saliva increases the risk of tooth decay.
