Dear Neighbor,
In uncertain economic times, it is important not only to maintain your smile but to ensure it does not become a liability. We all agree that having to buy a root canal and crown is about as exciting as having to buy new tires for your car or an unexpected expensive household repair. So with uncertain times ahead, wouldn’t it make sense to recession proof your smile? You may be wondering how do I recession proof my smile? It very easy, here’s how: - Prevention, Prevention, Prevention. Stay current with your biannual cleaning, x-rays and exams! Prevention and early detection is the best way to minimize dental expenses.
- Maximize use of Insurance Benefits and Medical Savings Accounts. Remember that unused benefits do not rollover. So don’t leave any benefits on the table!
- Block out decay. Let your hygienist know that you want a Fluoride Treatment! Fluoride reinforces your enamel against tooth decay. Helps prevent costly cavities!
- Get necessary treatment completed. Dental problems left untreated will only get worse and more expensive to correct. Furthermore, they will often result in painful emergency situations usually at the worst of times. (Murphy’s Law!)
- Identify all potential problems to avoid surprises. Make sure that your dentist identifies all potential problems such as old mercury fillings, old crowns and wisdom teeth. There are often hidden problems lurking under these old restorations prone to cause expensive dental work.
- Make sure you get a warranty! If you do need dental work, such as a crown, make sure your new crown comes with a warranty. An experienced and reputable dentist will usually guarantee their work.
- Finally protect your assets! Wear a custom-made night guard. A properly made night guard will protect your teeth from nighttime clenching and grinding forces that can damage or destroy teeth, bone support and gum health.
