What is the Cost of Emergency Dental Services
The cost of emergency dentistry depends on a multitude of factors, some of which include the type of injury that occurs, the type of restorative care needed to fix the problem, and whether dental insurance will be used to cover a portion of the cost.
Our team helps patients maximize their dental benefits while also explaining flexible financing to keep out-of-pocket expenses low.
How to Prevent Dental Emergencies
Prevention is the best way to avoid a dental emergency, but it’s not always possible. However, there are things a person can do to reduce their risk, such as:
- Adopting good oral hygiene habits at home to eliminate bad oral bacteria that cause cavities and gum disease
- Keeping six-month dental checkups and cleanings with Victory Smiles Dental Center
- Wearing a protective mouthguard while playing sports or if suffering from bruxism
- Eating healthy foods as opposed to those that contain high amounts of sugars and starches
- Giving up harmful habits like smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, eating ice, chewing on pens and pencils, and grinding one’s teeth
