What was the last investment you made?
For most of us, we probably think of business ventures or retirement plans when it comes to investing. In reality, you can make an investment in any area of your life — including your oral health.
Here at our San Jose office, we encourage our patients to consider different ways they can either preserve or restore the health of their smile. Taking the time to invest in your dental health can help ensure you have a healthy smile that lasts a lifetime.
Why is Investing In Dental Health Important?
Did you know that the bulk of American spending goes into food, transportation, and housing? Since these three items make up roughly 62% of annual expenses, it’s easy to see how dental care can be put on the back burner.
Unfortunately, neglecting your oral health over a period of time can eventually catch up with you. Most common dental problems like tooth decay, gum disease, or tooth loss occur after years, or even just months, of neglect.
The Best Ways to Invest in Your Oral Health
If you’re ready to take control of the health of your smile, you’re in luck! There are several easy ways the invest into the future of your dental health. Some of the top ways we recommend include:
Get Restorative Treatment Now: The longer you wait to receive restorative treatment, the worse shape your smile will be in. In the case of tooth loss, patients become more susceptible to bone deterioration and infections of the gums. Financially investing in proper restorative treatment will save you from dealing with complications that arise from untreated tooth loss.
Get the Right Tools: For a healthy smile, it’s crucial to brush your teeth twice a day and to floss at least once per day. Of course, a basic toothbrush and a pack of floss can get the job done, but consider upgrading your dental tools if you want to step up your oral hygiene routine. There are plenty of top-of-the-line choices when it comes to electric toothbrushes and water flossers. Spending the extra money on these tools can help you thoroughly clean your teeth and avoid tooth decay or gum disease.
Invest Your Time: Although we mention the financial ways to invest in your smile, investing your time is just as important. This can include spending extra time brushing your teeth or taking the time to go into your dentist’s office for routine cleanings.
