Regular dental check-ups and proper oral hygiene can prevent most dental emergencies. Many patients wait until they experience severe pain before seeking treatment, but early intervention is key to maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Prevention is always better than cure when it comes to your smile. Dr. Yousef Zakhour – Pediatric Dentistry Specialist
Important tip: Don’t wait until the problem gets worse. The earlier you receive treatment, the easier and less costly the solution will be.
