There are some patients who only visit their dentist when there is a serious problem, such as tooth pain or gum issues. While it is important to take care of potential dental emergencies, it is a better idea to focus on preventative care for better dental outcomes. Dr. Shahram Moghaddam focuses on top preventative dentistry in Watertown, MA to give patients the best results from their regular visits. If you commit to a regular schedule of routine visits for preventative care, there are many benefits. Here are some of the advantages you could get from routine care and preventative maintenance.

Excellent Oral Health 

The best outcome patients get from top preventative care is excellent oral health. This means little or no cavities and fewer emergency dental treatment visits. Patients who commit to regular care typically have strong, healthy teeth and can avoid other secondary health problems associated with poor oral health.

Fewer Complications 

Visiting your provider regularly and scheduling preventative care can also help you avoid potential dental complications, such as infections, decay or broken teeth. Regular checkups can help you avoid situations where you have a serious problem in the middle of the night. You could also potentially avoid extensive dental work.

Less Stress

Some people experience a high level of anxiety when visiting the dentist. This is typically related to treatments treating poor oral health. Preventative care is usually simple and fast and helps you avoid spending too much time in the dental chair.

Lower Costs

You can also avoid paying high costs for dental care if you invest a little into regular maintenance treatments and check-ups. Paying for a root canal, dental crown or a gum treatment can be tough to manage if you are a limited budget and your insurance does not help out.
