Prompt Treatment Can Prevent Progression
With most dental issues, prompt restorative action is key to preventing worsening problems. That’s because the teeth are strong, but they don’t have the ability to repair themselves when they’ve become eroded or otherwise damaged. By seeing the dentist quickly, if you suspect you have a cavity or other problem, you help to increase the likelihood that a simple treatment, like a dental filling, can help to restore the tooth, as well as your comfort.
Root Canal Therapy Can Help You Avoid More Extensive Measures
Fortunately, even if a cavity has progressed to the point of infection, endodontic care, such as root canal therapy, can often help to save the tooth, by helping to remove any infected portions of the tooth. Though root canal therapy is considered more invasive than some alternative treatments, it is still preferable to a tooth needing to be extracted.
