Crisis Treatment In The Fairfield, Southport & Westport Areas
Many
children don't see a pedodontist on a regular basis. They go only when they
feel they have a problem. At Kids First Dentistry we call this "crisis treatment" as opposed to
"preventive treatment".
While parents of these children may feel they are saving
money, it usually ends up costing much more in both dollars and time. The reason for this is that most
dental problems don't have any symptoms
until they reach the advanced stages.
An example is tooth decay. At Kids First Dentistry we hear all the time, "Nothing hurts... I
don't have any problems". But tooth decay doesn't hurt! Until, that is,
it gets close to the nerve of the tooth.
Then serious treatment is usually necessary instead of the
small filling, which could have been placed several years ago when the
cavity was small. Dr. Mokotoff can usually detect a cavity 3-4 years before it may
develop any symptoms. It is not uncommon to see a child with a
tremendous cavity and they have never felt a thing!
