Here’s Why Now Is The Time To Replace That Tooth! [BLOG]
The kids haven’t even gone trick-or-treating yet, so why would we begin a conversation about the upcoming holiday season?
Because it will be here before we know it, and our team at Alluring Smiles doesn’t want your holidays ruined by a painful dental problem, poor function, or an embarrassing smile because of one lost tooth.
Today, you’ll understand why we strongly encourage you to get the restorative treatment you need at Alluring Smiles before it’s too late.
Here’s Why Now Is The Time To Replace That Tooth!
A missing tooth is probably the most embarrassing smile problem you could have, which is why we’re proud to offer same-day restorations in Mesa, AZ so our patients never have to walk around feeling stressed and self-conscious.
But a missing tooth is also an oral health problem that can create lasting damage on a larger scale.
So let’s take a look at two reasons now is the perfect time to replace that lost tooth!
*The Holidays Are Almost Upon Us*
No, we haven’t even celebrated Halloween yet, but the reality is that here in a few short weeks, the holiday season will be upon us.
And everyone knows that’s the worst possible time for uncomfortable dental problems that affect your teeth’s function. You don’t want to spend Thanksgiving in pain, avoiding certain foods that are too difficult to chew, all while watching everyone around you enjoy one of the best meals of the year!
You also don’t want to spend the holidays feeling anxious or stressed about the way your smile looks all because of a missing tooth. You should be able to smile and interact with people you care about feeling relaxed and confident.
*You Should Never Take Chances With Your Health*
The moment a tooth comes out, there’s a chain reaction of events that not only threaten the stability of your other healthy teeth, but threaten your oral health in general.
Specifically, without a tooth and its root in place, your jawbone won’t be stimulated in that spot, so it starts to weaken and lose valuable mass.
Consequently, this deterioration continues throughout your jaw, compromising the structural integrity of everything that stands in its way.
That’s why losing one tooth, if enough time goes by, can result in more tooth loss down the road.
Of course, this will only happen if the tooth isn’t replaced as soon as possible.
We can use our same-day dental crown technology to put a new tooth in that empty space with a dental bridge or a dental implant, depending on your specific health needs.
This will protect your surrounding teeth, keep your smile looking healthy and natural, and preserve your oral health overall.
Take Action Now!
Before you let another day go by with an empty space in your mouth and a threat looming over your oral health, take action now to preserve the function and appearance of your smile.
Dr. Portocarrero and our team can use state-of-the-art same-day dental crowns and other restorative strategies to get you back on track and set you up for an enjoyable, confident holiday season!
