A public service announcement from Sewell Dental Arts. There is a cost for dental services such as routine examinations, cleanings, and cavity repairs. No dentist can afford to work for free after eight plus years of schooling and overhead of running an office 😊. For the patient, there’s an even bigger cost for neglecting one’s teeth. An untreated cavity can lead to a broken tooth or gum disease. If untreated these conditions can lead to more broken teeth, and it becomes a downward spiral until eventually all of one’s teeth must be replaced. This happens – look it up – look up “all on four” and learn about full arch replacements. That’s what we do. We encourage all patients to keep up on oral health with routine cleanings and examinations with their local Dentist, and when a tooth degrades or breaks, act quickly, because the real cost of ignoring one’s oral health is more than just a financial burden.
