Timely Treatment Matters To Your Health
Did we recommend a dental treatment for you or a loved one during your last visit, but you have yet to schedule the appointment? Receiving treatment for a dental concern soon after it is recommended is ideal. We know that life is busy with work, school, sports, family obligations, and general day-to-day happenings, but we encourage you to schedule your appointment as soon as possible. Soon it will be the holiday season, which is even busier for most people, and you may find it even harder to fit in that appointment. Several months could go by before you’re able to receive treatment, and in that time, your treatment needs may change. Even if you don’t need a specific treatment right now, it is important to understand that delaying necessary dental care can have real consequences. Keep reading to learn about the importance of getting recommended treatment as soon as possible.
Timely Treatment is Important
We know that life is busy, especially around this time. With Thanksgiving at the end of the month and the holiday season fast approaching, it may seem like there is not enough time to fit in all the obligations, parties, and activities. However, if we recently recommended a dental treatment for you or a loved one, it is important that you schedule your appointment and visit us as soon as possible. Unfortunately, dental decay and other issues do not heal over time, and the longer you delay treatment, the higher the risk that the condition will worsen. Delaying treatment also opens the door to a dental emergency, additional treatments, and added expenses.
Please, Be Honest with Us
If you have delayed scheduling your appointment because of nervousness or fear, we encourage you to be honest with us about your feelings. We can explain any treatment we have recommended and talk you through our approach step by step so you know what to expect during your visit.
