Waiting To Go To The Dentist Only When You Have A Problem

Julie Valentine DDS Debunks Dental Myths:

Most adults have plenty of opinions about oral health care. Yet a surprising number of them are based on myths and even on outdated facts that have been disproved since you last gave them a thought.

MYTH: Only go to the dentist if you have a problem.
FACT: Waiting until you have a painful problem can damage your oral and overall health, as well as result in increased care costs, as simple problems become more complex. Regular checkups and preventive dentistry are the best strategy… leading to a more fulfilling life … no matter how old you are.
