What can you look forward to when you need to schedule a treatment for a cavity? People can feel less than excited to make an appointment to see their dentist for work that addresses tooth decay. While you may not find restorative dental work exciting, you should be aware that putting off treatment can be an issue, because the problem can worsen over time. Fortunately, when you do schedule care, your Shrewsbury, MA dentist’s office can make sure your needs are fully addressed. In addition to taking care of the decay that is hurting your oral health, our practice can provide you with a restoration that provides support for the look, and health, of the tooth in question.
1. Putting Off A Procedure Will Give Decay More Time To Spread
The more time you spend with an untreated cavity, the more dental damage you will ultimately experience. Your ability to prevent a cavity from forming does not translate to a capacity to stop an existing cavity from worsening. This means that if you delay treatment, the matter can grow more significant. At a certain point, you could require a root canal treatment and dental crown to properly restore your tooth!
2. Your Restoration Can Be A Close Match To Your Tooth Structure
Modern dental fillings and dental crowns are effective at more than just protecting a tooth after a cavity has damaged it. The materials we use for our restorations can closely match your enamel, so you are not concerned with a restoration disrupting the way you look. We even have the technology to make sure that your lifelike crown is produced in just one visit, so that in addition to improving the way you look, our practice can make sure your work is finished in less time.
3. You Can Arrange Future Visits, And Reduce Your Risk For Future Decay
After having your cavity treated, you can make arrangements to see us for regular dental exams. At these exams, your dentist will warn you if something may be wrong with your smile. These evaluations can lead to trouble being detected and treated with fewer delays. Our practice also provides expert dental cleanings every time you come in for routine care. These sessions remove tartar, plaque, and other harmful agents that increase your risk for future cavities.
