Do you have chipped, crooked and misaligned teeth that reduce the quality of your smile? People often overlook dental health issues, especially if they think the problems are cosmetic, but the cosmetic issues result in oral issues. Carnegie Dental Wellness team understands how oral issues like bad breath, teeth discoloration, tooth loss, and gum disease can impact your health. Thus they provide comprehensive services such as general, cosmetic, emergency, and restorative dentistry. They will fix dental implants, invasion, and crowns, and treat periodontitis. Here are the benefits of comprehensive dental care.
Effective Dental Care Prevents Gum Disease and Periodontitis
Bacteria can grow on the teeth’ surface, leading to gum infection and gum disease. Gum disease causes swelling, inflammation, and discomfort in the soft tissues of the gums and might result in bleeding. Gym disease progresses into periodontitis without proper treatment, resulting in large gaps between the teeth and the gums, leading to bad oral odors. Periodontitis might result in heart disease, tooth loss, and bone recession on the jaw. Thus, a dentist will treat the gum disease by disinfecting the gums and reshaping them with soft tissue grafts harvested from the upper mouth floor.
Comprehensive Dental Care Involves Cosmetic Practices
Cosmetic dental practices such as teeth whitening are important as it improves your appearance, and you can receive this treatment at the dental clinic. Although you can resort to over-the-counter whiteners, they may not be as efficient as the prescribed teeth whiteners. Thus you should be careful when whitening your teeth as the chemicals might affect the gums leading to gum disease.
You could opt for veneers and cosmetic implants on the front of the teeth. The veneers will improve chipped teeth, severely discolored teeth, and other imperfections. Although they treat cosmetic problems, veneers might prevent issues such as tooth decay and sensitivity and improve overall oral health.
Comprehensive Care Fixes Dental Issues
You might develop dental problems such as decay, crookedness, and chipping, leading to oral problems. For instance, dental cavities destroy the enamel and exposure to the root canal, resulting in bacterial infections. Thus the veneers will fix cosmetic issues and improve oral health outcomes.
Moreover, you can ask your dentist for dental implants if you lose teeth from a traumatic tooth decay experience. The implants can prevent bone loss from the jaw restoring the appearance of the facial features. Moreover, they look like natural teeth and will prevent the teeth on the arch from moving around, thus reducing crookedness. It might be an ideal solution for fixing lost teeth as it is permanent and requires less maintenance.
Although you can overlook the importance of comprehensive oral health care, seeing a dentist for preventive oral treatments is important. Preventing oral issues in the early stages makes it possible to manage oral problems easily, as it lowers the cost of treatment and the extent of the damage. Thus you should opt for comprehensive dental care practices such as brushing and flossing frequently. Moreover, the dentist may recommend cosmetic procedures like veneers, dental implants, and teeth whitening, improving your smile’s quality.
