Nobody ever thinks of their dentist when joking about someone “making you an offer you cannot refuse”; but, in a way, they should. Your dentist is not a Mafioso God Farther threatening you in any way; your dentist is your friend offering you a future that could be free of toothache and other mouth related problems.
So, Why Do So Many People Refuse The Dentist’s Offer?
At the back of our minds, we are all aware of the need for good oral hygiene backed up by having a dentist check our teeth on a regular basis. Very few of us actually forget to clean our teeth more than once per day (every day); many of us use special toothpastes, some use dental floss regularly; in some places, authorities put tooth protecting chemicals in our water; yet so many of us forget or procrastinate over that important visit to our dentist In Fall River MA for our next check up.
We have refused the offer and carry on with our day to day lives; until, out of the blue – OUCH – we have a bad toothache and no longer need a check up appointment. What we need now is an immediate emergency appointment in the surgery of that same Dentist In Fall River MA!
You Left It Too Late
Do you know that here is a disease called dental caries which is one of the most common afflictions in the world today? You should do –you probably suffer from it yourself! You get caries as a result of bacteria in your mouth producing acid which can then attack the base material of your teeth through cracks in a tooth’s protective enamel. Since the main tooth material cannot regenerate; you can either leave a diseased tooth to rot away and fall out (painful) or the decayed matter has to be drilled out and the gap filled with an amalgam (not necessary painful but anesthetic or sedation is requested by many patients).
Did you know that many a Dentist Fall River MA now has a piece of equipment called a Kinetic Transilluminator which is a device that (painlessly) detects even the smallest cracks in your teeth? If detected early enough, cracks can be sealed and the surface regenerated before caries has a chance to pass below the surface; another reason to accept the dentist’s offer.
For a really user friendly Dentist In Fall River MA you should try the practice run by Dr. Carl Ferreira. Phone 508-679-4197 to arrange an appointment.
