There are times when you stand in need of dental services. You might need emergency services such as having a wisdom tooth pulled, an emergency extraction or a root canal. You might need to come in for teeth whitening, veneers or other cosmetic dental services. The common dental problems experienced by general dentists and other dental specialists.
1. A lot of people come to the dentist with missing teeth for whatever reasons. Missing teeth are more than just cosmetic eyesores, they can lead to bone loss. This issue can be corrected with dentures, partials or implants.
2. Some people come to the dental office unaware that they have gum disease or are in the early stages of it. Gingivitis, for example, accompanied by bleeding from the gums is the early stages of periodontal disease. Left unattended, it will become periodontal disease and lead to enamel decay and eventually loss of teeth.
3. One of the more common issues seen when people come to the dentist who don’t visit with regular appointments is that of cavities. The buildup of plaque (of which bacteria is associated) can lead to this terrible dental issue. If cavities are discovered, it may be necessary to correct them with dental crowns or tooth fillings.
4. Unfortunately, a lot of people make dental visits and they have tooth infections and in order to correct this and keep the tooth from infecting other teeth, either an extraction will have to be performed or a root canal, whichever under the circumstances, the dentist may deem the best.
