3 Consequences of Not Visiting the Dentist and How Dr. Pagonis Can Help
- Gum Disease — Gum disease is a severe oral health condition linked to significant health issues, including pulmonary problems, pregnancy complications, and certain types of dementia,
- Cavities — Untreated tooth decay leads to tooth crumbling, tooth loss, and even painful tooth infections.
- Tooth Infections — Tooth infections require root canal therapy and crowning to eliminate pain, stop infection spread, and prevent loss.
Gum disease is preventable, but if you are diagnosed, we can treat the condition to lower your complication risks. Lack of dental care is a significant risk factor for gum disease.
Cavities and tooth infections occur quickly when you skip dental care, especially professional teeth cleanings. The team and Nicole E. Pagonis, DDS, can treat these issues and restore oral health.
We can also provide guidance to help you make healthy decisions for your teeth and gums between dental visits.
