How to prevent a dental crisis

Dentist

All too often, patients do not see their dentists regularly. Instead, many people in the Apple Valley area figure if they don’t have tooth pain or other noticeable problems it is safe and economical to skip regular preventative care visits. However, “crisis” dental visits often end up costing patients significantly more money and time away from work than if they had kept with their preventative care visits.

At Smiles by Design, we know that many dental problems do not have noticeable symptoms until they become serious issues. Small and painless cavities can take 3-4 years before they become painful. By then, you likely will need a root canal and crown to stop the decay. By seeing Dr. Hermanson routinely instead, he can detect small cavities and use fillings to stop further damage.

Don't Forget to Floss!

Clean between teeth daily with floss or an interdental cleaner. Decay-causing bacteria can hide between teeth where toothbrush bristles can't reach. Flossing helps remove plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gum line.

Visit Our Office Regularly!

Take good care of your smile. Remember to visit the dentist regularly for professional cleanings and oral exams.

Mouthwash Is Important, Too!

Brushing and flossing may not be enough. The ADA now recommends using an antimicrobial mouthwash to reduce plaque and prevent gingivitis.
