A bright and healthy smiles comes with benefits
Having a lovely smile comes along with various benefits. Apart from giving off a good clean blast of breath, having a set of pearly whites can affect your confidence, self-image, and self-esteem. With healthy gums, you get to enjoy a better quality of life: getting proper sleep, eating properly and well, and of course the impending doom of losing one's teeth won't be dangling on your mind.
Interestingly, gum disease has been associated with other health issues like memory loss, or cardiovascular problems such as heart diseases, blocked blood vessels and stroke. Stroke happens to be one of the Critical Illnesses covered in your insurance plans. If you don't have coverage for Critical Illness (CI) please speak with your trusted insurance advisor this weekend.
Overall, the cost of frequent dental visits to do routine scaling and polishing will be lesser than having to constantly visit your dentist for dental works like extraction. Do think twice about postponing your dental appointment. You could be kicking the can down the road.
