Northampton, MA \u2013 \u201cWith an uncertain economy, many Americans are paring down their expenses,\u201d notes Northampton dentist<\/a> Dr. Lisa Emirizian. \u201cBut, regular dental visits are something you shouldn\u2019t cut back on. Avoiding routine dental visits may save you money now, but it will not pay off in the long run. If a dentist recognizes a problem at an early stage, it is easier and less expensive to treat than if it\u2019s found later.\u201d Prevention is an important key to lifelong oral health.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf they\u2019re uncovered early enough, many serious conditions can be avoided,\u201d explains on of the best\u00a0 Northampton MA dentists<\/a>, Dr. Vincent Mariano. \u201cOral cancer, decay, abscesses, gum infections, tooth wear, and enamel erosion are all more successfully treated in the early stages.\u201d If neglected, these problems become more serious, and more costly to fix.<\/span><\/p>\n

For instance, a small cavity that is untreated can spread to the tooth\u2019s nerve, where it will cause an infection or abscess. Only then does the patient feel pain and recognize that there\u2019s a problem. But now, instead of a simple filling, the dentist needs to treat it with more extensive and expensive procedures. \u201cDon\u2019t wait until something causes pain,\u201d warns Dr. Emirizian, a Northampton cosmetic<\/a>\u00a0dentist. \u201cIf you\u2019re experiencing discomfort, the issue is probably more serious and difficult to treat.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Northampton dental implants<\/a> provider also note that a healthy mouth is vital to a healthy body. Infections that start in the mouth can spread all over your body. Experts have discovered links between gum disease and other health conditions such as high blood pressure, heart disease, strokes, diabetes, arthritis, premature births, and many more.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, a dentist is often the first health professional to recognize changes in the patient\u2019s physical condition. Diabetics, for instance, are far more likely to have diseased gums since their infection-fighting capacity is reduced. \u201cWe see this quite often,\u201d notes Dr. Mariano. \u201cFor example, a patient comes in for a check-up and has had a serious gum infection in the last six months. Sometimes he or she has experienced unexplained weight loss. So, we advise patients to visit their physicians. More often than not, they have undiagnosed diabetes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dentists can also discover: acid reflux and gastroenterological diseases (patients\u2019 teeth are more likely to decay), some auto-immune disorders (which affect the mouth\u2019s soft tissue and salivary glands), liver diseases (which jaundice the soft tissues) and many more.<\/p>\n

\u201cRegular visits can help detect and avoid many health problems,\u201d explains Dr. Emirizian, a Northampton dentistry<\/a> practitioner. \u201cBut we can\u2019t help if the patients don\u2019t come in for routine visits.\u201d<\/p>\n
