Crisis Treatment In The St Louis Area Many
people don't see a dentist on a regular basis. They go only when they
feel they have a problem. At Gary B Wiele DDS we call this "crisis treatment" as opposed to
"preventive treatment". While these patients may feel they are saving money, it usually ends up costing much more in both dollars and time. The reason for this is that most dental problems don't have any symptoms until they reach the advanced stages. Occasionally we hear, “Nothing hurts…I don’t have any problems.” Tooth decay doesn’t hurt until it gets very close to, or into, the nerve of the tooth. Then a root canal and crown or tooth extraction are usually necessary, instead of the small filling which could have been placed several years ago when the cavity was small. Dr. Wiele can detect a cavity long before it would develop any symptoms. It is not uncommon to see a patient with a tremendous cavity and they have never felt a thing! |
