Did you know that bad oral health can cause a myriad of different problems around your whole body?
It’s surprising, but oral health can have a lasting effect on your entire body, not just your teeth.
With Dr. Neal Green D.D.S., a trip to the dentist doesn’t have to be the worst thing ever. Dentistry anxiety and fears are completely normal and totally understandable. Someone messing around in your mouth, causing you discomfort and pain- no one likes the dentist!
Dr. Green, a recovered dentophobic himself, went into dentistry with the goal of creating an environment in his practice where people didn’t actively avoid regular cleaning and treatment because of nerves.
“For many, the thought of going to the dentist brings anxiety and fear. This is perfectly natural, although it can cause you to put off much-needed dental checkups and cleanings for years. Unfortunately, avoiding the dentist can spell disaster for your oral health,” said Dr. Green’s site.
Bad oral health can expose you to many much more serious conditions. Bad oral health can cause cardiovascular disease, endocarditis, pneumonia, and is even linked to premature birth and low birth weight. The probability of complications from poor oral health are exacerbated by autoimmune diseases such as diabetes, crohn’s disease, lupus, and more.

Anyone in any stage of life can have dental anxiety, but everyone, no matter what age, needs regular dental checkups. The more consistently you get your teeth and gums checked out, the likelier the dentist is to catch problems early and keep your teeth in better shape.
Every 6 months sounds like a long time, but it can be easy to lose track of time in our crazy busy lives. It is always good to book your appointments far in advance, that way it is never forgotten.
You can always ask your dental office to call you and give you a reminder when it comes closer to your appointment date, giving you time to plan ahead.
“When you haven’t been to the dentist in years or if you’re afraid of the sights and sounds of dentistry, it can feel like more than just a hassle to make an appointment—it can become a downright fear. Fortunately, we cater to the needs of patients with dental anxiety. We make the process simple and painless, so you can carry on with your everyday life and have a smile you’re proud to show off,” states their website.
