At Dr.
Bilski’s dental practice, we often get asked about the most painful
dental conditions. While pain is subjective, certain conditions repeatedly
come up in our consultations due to their severity. Through patient
education, we aim to shed light on these ailments and emphasize the
importance of preventive care.
- Dental Abscesses:
Often the precursor to a root canal, abscesses occur due to untreated
cavities or fractures, leading to nerve infections. The resulting swelling is
intensely painful and requires immediate professional
attention. - Impacted Wisdom
Teeth: Wisdom teeth erupting in adulthood can cause significant discomfort.
When bacteria invade the gums around these teeth, it can lead to
pericoronitis, a painful inflammation that needs to be managed
promptly. - Periodontitis: A
progressive gum disease that leads to bone loss, gum recession, and loose
teeth. Good oral hygiene practices are essential to prevent this condition,
which is more common than you might think.
We advocate regular dental
check-ups, at least twice a year, to catch issues early and maintain optimal
oral health. Neglecting dental visits can lead to the exacerbation of these
conditions, many of which are preventable with consistent
care.
At our office, we not only
provide top-notch dental care but also ensure our patients leave with a
smile. As part of our protective eyewear policy, patients receive
complimentary stylish sunglasses that change color in the
sunlight!
