Life gets busy, and it’s easy to postpone a dental check-up. However, skipping routine cleanings can lead to serious oral health problems that may be costly and painful to fix. At Unique Dental of Worcester, we emphasize preventive care to keep your teeth and gums in top condition.
Plaque builds up daily, and even the best brushing can’t remove all of it. Without professional cleanings, plaque hardens into tartar, which leads to cavities, gum disease, and even tooth loss over time.
Skipping check-ups also means small problems can turn into major issues. A tiny cavity that could have been fixed with a simple filling may grow into a serious infection requiring a root canal or extraction.
Poor oral health doesn’t just affect your teeth. Studies show gum disease is linked to heart disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s. Regular dental visits don’t just protect your smile—they protect your overall well-being.
