Don’t let the credit crunch crunch your teeth

Don’t let the credit crunch crunch your teeth
With everyone having to tighten their belts during the recession, dentists are warning patients not to neglect regular check-ups in an attempt to save money.

Some families are forgoing dental treatment because of its cost or because they lack insurance. However, neglecting problems in your mouth could lead to infection, which may lead to life-threatening consequences.

People with HIV, chronic heart problems and type 2 diabetes should be especially careful about their hygiene and visit their dentists regularly.
