Advanced gingivitis may cause periodontitis, which is an infection where bacterial plaque damages the connective tissue underneath the gums, potentially dislocating one or more teeth. Periodontitis is also a risk factor in heart attacks and strokes.
Toothache and swelling call for quick action. Moreover, if you have a lump or an ulcer that does not heal on its own in two weeks, we recommend contacting a dentist. It is important to check that it is not a symptom of oral cancer.
Patients waiting for a joint replacement surgery must always visit a dentist first as any infections must be treated before major surgery. Pregnant women are also advised to have a dental check-up.
During the dental check-up, you will get an assessment of the health of your mouth and teeth from the dentist, as well as a recommendation for further measures. A dental check-up is a painless examination, and there is no need to do any treatment in connection with it.
With a dentist experienced in treating patients with dental fear, you can face your fears safely and at your own pace.
