Information about oral health
Oral health and regular dental care have a large impact on our general health.

Most dental problems develop over time without any symptoms. The earlier problems are detected, the easier and more affordable it is to treat them.

During the dental check-up, you will get an assessment of the health of your mouth and teeth from the dentist, as well as a recommendation for further measures. A dental check-up is a painless examination, and there is no need to do any treatment in connection with it.

What are the possible consequences of untreated gingivitis?
Advanced gingivitis may cause periodontitis, which is an infection where bacterial plaque damages the connective tissue underneath the gums, potentially dislocating one or more teeth. Periodontitis is also a risk factor in heart attacks and strokes.
When to seek dental care quickly?
Toothache and swelling call for quick action. Moreover, if you have a lump or an ulcer that does not heal on its own in two weeks, we recommend contacting a dentist. It is important to check that it is not a symptom of oral cancer.
Patients waiting for a joint replacement surgery must always visit a dentist first as any infections must be treated before major surgery. Pregnant women are also advised to have a dental check-up.
