Prevention is the Key.

Everyone knows if you catch a disease early it is highly more treatable.  Whether it is cancer, heart disease, lung problems, or dental issues the same theory applies.  It just makes sense…catch it early and win the fight!  That final issue is one that we tend to put off thinking a toothache will go away.

That aching tooth is probably an early sign that something is very wrong inside of your mouth.  While that ache will probably go away it will rear its ugly head later as a sign of bigger issues.  One tenant to always remember is that the American Dental Association suggests that you visit your dentist every six months…so does your dental insurance.

During one of these visits that dreaded plaque will be removed through a refreshing, deep cleaning.  Harmless X-rays will show if there are any impending oral diseases that need to be treated before they start growing.  All of this is done by your general Carol Stream dentist Dr. David Blackman and his team.  Call for your next visit at 400 N. Gary Ave. (630) 260-1700.
