This YouTube video by AllHealthGo details the importance of dental health and what could happen if your teeth aren’t properly treated.
Your mouth is the gateway to your overall health. When you forego dental treatment you put your entire body at risk. There are several symptoms that start in the mouth, gums, and tongue that signify greater issues.
For instance, sores or pustules under the tongue could be a sign of cancer.
What if I’m afraid of dentists? Odontophobia is real. It’s a true fear of dentists and the instruments they use. However, this doesn’t mean you need to stay away.
Today, practices use sedation or holistic methods to put your mind at ease. As a result, dental treatment isn’t as scary as they once were.
What if I Don’t Have Insurance? Dental insurance isn’t the only part of a company’s comprehensive insurance plan. You can purchase individual or family dental insurance for a small monthly premium. With that, you receive bi-annual checkups, x-rays, and cleanings. All of these are important for a healthy mouth and body.
