It’s not just about how you look; your smile shows a lot about your health. If you ignore tooth warning signs, bad things can happen.
A persistent headache, for example, could be a sign of an abscess or an infected pulp. Something that starts out as a small annoyance can quickly become a big problem.
You might have gum disease if your gums are swollen or bleeding. This can cause tooth loss and even heart disease.
Even if you brush and floss your teeth every day, bad breath can be a sign of gum disease or an infection in your mouth.
If your teeth are loose, sensitive to changes in temperature, or hurt when you chew, you may have a serious tooth problem.
If you notice lumps or bumps on your gums, mouth, or lips that you can’t explain, you should see a doctor right away because they could be signs of oral cancer.
Don’t take chances with your health; see a dentist as soon as you notice something is wrong.
Getting help early can:
