Do you get stressed out about going to the dentist?

You’re not alone.

Many people are fearful or anxious about the dentist because they:

• had a bad experience as a kid
• dread the thought of pain
• are freaked out by needles
• hate the sound of the drill
• have a sensitive gag reflex
• are embarrassed about the condition of their teeth and gums

Are you in pain or discomfort?

If it’s hard for you to chew, if you feel pain when you eat or drink something that’s cold, if you know that something just isn’t right, you could have:

• AN INFECTION
• AN IMPACTED TOOTH
• GUM DISEASE
• TOOTH DECAY
• A BROKEN TOOTH
• A LOOSE TOOTH

NONE OF THESE DENTAL PROBLEMS WILL GO AWAY ON THEIR OWN

Seek help from a dentist now before the pain gets even worse and the problem requires even more dental work.

Are you embarrassed to smile?

Being afraid that you’ll be judged because of your teeth can leave you afraid to speak up or reluctant to smile.

If your teeth are in bad shape, restorative dentistry procedures can get them back in working condition with:

• DENTAL BRIDGES
• DENTAL CROWNS
• DENTAL IMPLANTS

If your teeth are healthy but look awful, cosmetic dentistry can give you the smile you’ve always wanted with treatments like:

• PORCELAIN VENEERS
• LUMINEERS
• INVISALIGN
• TOOTH WHITENING

Get rid of stains and gaps. Conceal oddly shaped teeth or excessive gums. Align crooked teeth. Elongate short teeth. There is a solution for every dental problem.

Do you have missing teeth?

One missing tooth may not seem like a big deal, but it’s actually a really big problem. Loose or missing teeth could:

• Be a sign that you have gum disease
• Cause nearby teeth to shift out of place
• Affect the shape of your face
• Impact your ability to speak or chew

Do you have a Dental Emergency?

Any blow to the mouth can cause a lot of bleeding, whether it’s caused by a car accident, punch, collision, or fall. It’s essential to contact your dentist if you have a dental emergency such as:

• A tooth knocked out
• Damaged or lost crown
• Broken tooth
• Loose teeth
• Mouth trauma
• Extreme tooth or gum pain
• Jaw pain

If you have any concerns about your teeth, call your dentist. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Go ahead, get a second opinion

You may have a dentist you trust, but it’s important to get a second opinion when you have doubts about another dentist’s recommended treatment. Choose a dentist who is:

• Impartial
• Honest
• Answers questions
• Addresses concerns
