Poor Oral Health Can Make Having an Active Social Life More Difficult
Posted on 10/15/2018 by Dr. Chapko
Millions of people in the United States are missing one or all the teeth in their upper or lower jaws. The statistics are alarming and affect mostly seniors who can't afford regular dental checkups or other expensive procedures. This is highly concerning not only from the standpoint of their health but because it also can affect their social life and general wellbeing.
The Importance of Oral Health and Healthy Social Life
If you have missing teeth, discoloration, or uneven teeth, you are probably self-conscious about it and avoid social situations. Many people with cosmetic dental problems cover their mouth when they speak and can even have difficulty eating properly because of loose-fitting dentures.
One of our primary goals is to care for our patients in a comprehensive way, giving them a smile they can be proud to show off. If you are not happy with your smile and are avoiding interacting with others in social settings, we can help you.
