Los Angeles Invisalign Provider Discusses the Importance of Routine Dental Care

    LOS ANGELES, CA, March 13, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- According to a recent Pew Center study, more people are visiting the ER for dental complaints. In 2011, 115,000 Floridians visited the ER for dental pain. On the west coast, Californians made 83,000 trips to the ER for dental conditions. Many of these trips could have been evaded with routine dental care.

In the emergency room, doctors administer drugs to relieve pain, but the underlying dental problem isn't normally treated. While the medication can alleviate immediate pain, the real problem still exists. Many patients can't pay for a dentist, and their dental ailments continue to destruct their mouths.

Oral health affects overall health, and maintaining strong teeth and gums will keep patients from visiting the ER unnecessarily. While patients may skip regular dental visits to save money, an ER visit will yield a larger bill, significantly more than preemptive dental care costs.

Dr. Joseph Marvizi, a Los Angeles Invisalign provider, carefully inspects patients' mouths for undetected problems, such as TMJ disorders, periodontal disease, gingivitis, occlusion issues, and gum disease.

"We're interested in how we can educate our patients on the silent diseases that are going on in their mouths," says Marvisi, a cosmetic dentist.

For patients with missing teeth, dental implants give structure to the mouth, ensuring that teeth don't shift and the bite stays intact. Daily flossing keeps gums healthy, since gums are the foundation of the teeth. If you notice redness, bleeding or swelling around your gums, contact a dentist. These could be indicators of gum disease.
