Care Today, Savings Tomorrow

Taking care of your teeth and managing your oral health may save you thousands of dollars in restorative dental care. Did you know that a complete restoration of your teeth can cost up to $80,000? Preventive dentistry and proper home care can safeguard you from undergoing dental procedures that are costly and completely avoidable.
Preventive dental care is based on routine hygiene procedures and daily routines to prevent tooth decay and other dental diseases and conditions. The American dental Association recommends a minimum of 2 dental checkups every year. This includes a professional dental cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist and a thorough assessment of your overall dental health. Keeping that schedule can help your dentist stop dental disease in its earliest stages. Dental disease is progressive and only becomes more costly to repair as the condition worsens.
Early prevention is key to avoiding costly dental restorations. Children’s teeth need to be cleaned daily when they begin to appear. A visit with the dentist is in order around age one to establish a comprehensive oral health prevention program for your child. Your dentist will make suggestions about dental care including at-home flossing and brushing, fluoride use diet and the benefits of visits to the dentist.
Your Bearable Dentistry dentists, dental hygienists and dental assistants are specially trained to help you keep your smile healthy. See your dentist regularly to protect your smile and limit the necessity of dental restoration expense. Make your preventive appointment today!
