Your oral health is important, as it can have a significant impact on your appearance as well as your overall well-being. Even at a time when we have all faced heightened risks due to the spread of coronavirus, our Rochester, MN dentist’s office has been able to maintain a safe and friendly environment for patients. In fact, routine dental appointments have remained safer than you realize. We have put new safety practices into effect to better support our patients and team members. The treatment experience itself has even shown minimal risks; in fact, a recent study has concerned that the aerosols released during a routine appointment are from irrigation tools and not saliva. This means the spaces where care takes place carry even less risk than you might have anticipated!
We Can Provide Important Dental Services In A Safe, Welcoming Environment
Through consistent oral health care, you receive protection against problems like dental decay and gum disease. Both of these problems can have a larger impact on your general well-being than you might realize. An advanced cavity can lead to new problems with an infection as bacteria spread through the roots of teeth. Poor periodontal health can make certain other health conditions harder to manage, and bacteria that travel through your bloodstream can create problems with different parts of your body. Fortunately, regular appointments continue to be safe and beneficial even as we all take precautions against coronavirus.
What To Expect During Your Next Exam
During a routine oral health checkup, we will carefully evaluate your smile, look out for any worrying health issues, and safely clean your teeth to fight the buildup of plaque and tartar. By consistently seeing your dentist, you receive the kind of preventive care that lowers your risk for future oral health difficulties. You also receive early warnings when there are issues that need to be treated to avoid complications.
We Can Restore Unhealthy Teeth Without Changing Your Smile
If you have gone an extended length of time without preventive care, you may need to undergo treatment to restore teeth that are impacted by dental decay. Both the dental fillings and dental crowns that we use during treatment can preserve your appearance while they also provide oral health benefits. Fillings are the more conservative option, as they only cover a portion of your enamel, while a crown surrounds the tooth to provide more structural support. In both cases, we can make sure your smile is not impacted by the presence of a restoration, and we can even provide the care you need in just one appointment!
