You might not know it – but you may be on a pathway straight toward the need for root canal therapy at this very moment. While this might not be the news you were hoping to hear, it means that you can, in fact, often identify aspects of your daily life that you may improve to avoid the need for complex restorative treatment. We are excited to provide you with a few examples, so you can quickly become familiar with how to best protect your smile.
Path #1: You’re Lax About Dental Care
This applies to nearly any issue you have with your smile – including a desire to avoid root canal treatments. Dedicate yourself to your preventive care. Brush your teeth and floss as we recommend, schedule visits according to our guidelines. As a result, you can toss your worries aside.
Path #2: You Think Your Teeth Are Invincible
Stop thinking of your teeth as tiny, invincible superheroes. It’s true that their durability is quite impressive but they do have limits. Rather that testing those limits, cracking a tooth, and then requiring root canal therapy, we suggest you treat your smile kindly. Don’t eat something if you think it might break your tooth, don’t try to open a package because your scissors are not in sight – just trust your instincts.
Path #3: You Are A Procrastinator
You might be surprised to learn that your tendency to procrastinate can actually lead you down a path toward the need for root canal therapy. This is an easy problem to rectify, fortunately. Just remember to act quickly when we make serious suggestions. For instance, if you have a cavity and we suggest a filling, schedule your visit immediately rather than waiting. As a result, you will not give the problem time to advance severely enough to warrant a root canal.
