Reason to Go to the Scary Dentist this Fall

The Fall singles many things about what it to come for many people in the United States.  It means the colder weather is on the way, trees are starting to turn different colors and that people are going to eat more sweets.  This time of year is the beginning of the sweets and gatherings for many people in our country.  It is work and regular holiday season and many people end up eating and drinking less healthy for your teeth foods and drinks.  It is the time of year that people tend to have the worst dental hygiene and think about there teeth the least. So I want to go over a few reasons why you should not neglect going to see the dentist during the fall and scary part of the year, because there is nothing worse then seeing a dentist for an emergency visit.

The first reason to see the dentist and to make sure your teeth are ok is to know ahead of time if a problem is already there.  I like to schedule a visit before the holidays or Fall because I know that if I am having issues that all the extra food and drinks will only make them worse.  Immagine has dental erosion happening and you are on the brink of multiple cavities and you didn’t know it.  If you simply stopped your sugar and acidic drinks intake that you would be ok.  But instead, you go out and party it up like normal and end up with 3 cavities and a route canal.  This could have all been prevented by knowing that you needed to be wise with your dental health for the next few months. 

The next reason is that if I am ok I can then get a checkup after the season if I know that my teeth are looking or my mouth is feeling different.  That is a great reason to go ahead and know that you need a visit if you are feeling these things.  That is the answer to all of the problems that could be solved and that is simply knowing.   The knowing is half the battle because it could end up saving you lots of money.

Preventative dental care is really important not only because it can save your pain and improve your health but it can also improve your pocketbook.  Emergency surgeries and visits to the dentist are not cheap.  They are expensive and not only cost you money but your time and ability to make money with that time.  The cost of visiting a dentist for a checkup and getting advice for preventative issues saves you so much more money most of the time.  It can help eliminate those surgeries and emergency trips.  It can also keep you from feeling all of the pain that is involved.  This is why I like to schedule my bi-yearly checkup right before the holidays and then six months after as long as nothing is wrong. 

There are many ways to get your schedule and dental health on track and I think that frequent trips to the dentist is one of them.  I mean frequent to be only twice a year and that is not a large burden in comparison to surgeries.
