Regular dental visits provide a chance for early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of oral diseases for people of all ages. Unfortunately, not everyone has the opportunity to see a dentist, whether it’s because of a lack of dental insurance, the ability to time off from work, or simply not understanding that a healthy mouth is important to a healthy body.

Las visitas con regularidad al dentista ofrecen la oportunidad de lograr el diagnóstico temprano, la prevención y el tratamiento de enfermedades orales en personas de todas las edades. Lamentablemente, no todos tienen la oportunidad de consultar a un dentista, sea por falta de seguro dental, la posibilidad de pedir tiempo libre en el trabajo o simplemente no entender que una boca saludable es importante para un cuerpo saludable.
