We know that it’s very easy to fall into some black-and-white thinking in regard to your dental care if you haven’t been doing such a great job or if you think you’ve been performing your smile care wonderfully but you still end up with problems. You may tend to think of yourself either as a “good” patient if your smile is healthy or as a “bad” patient if your smile is not in perfect condition. Our Conroe, TX team would like to remind you that this is not a very healthy way to look at your oral health! It can cause you to feel stressed or disappointed when the only emotions you really want to experience in regard to your smile are positive ones! Let’s help you better understand why needing anything more than a checkup and cleaning is not something that should cause you any upset!

Bacteria Can Be Very Sneaky

Sometimes, even when you’ve been doing an amazing job with your oral health and your dental care, you still end up with a cavity or some other bacteria-related problem. How is this possible, you ask, if you are brushing and flossing as we suggest? Well, it’s because bacteria can be extremely sneaky. Your teeth are filled with grooves. Sometimes, you can even develop a tiny crack in your tooth, which gives bacteria entrance. Should this happen, we can fix it with restorative care and we can help you avoid it in the future, so you can more easily keep cavities and infection at bay. See? Nothing to feel bad about! Simply try your best and go from there.

Remember, Sometimes Extra Care Is Still Preventive

If you find that you are experiencing an oral health concern that could lead to damage, we remind you not to feel bad about this. Did you know that there are many instances in which you can still receive preventive dental care for your concern because damage hasn’t even occurred yet? For instance, if you suffer from TMJ disorder or bruxism, this isn’t your fault! When you come to us for your checkups, we can diagnose you and offer treatment to stop the issue from harming your oral health. See? It’s no problem!
