Sensitive teeth and tooth decay<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.opencare.com\/blog\/tooth-enamel-loss-erosion-treatment\/\">Tooth decay<\/a> sometimes happens as early as childhood. This can lead to several potential consequences. When you have tooth decay, your teeth may become weaker and brittle. This means breaking a tooth becomes easier \u2013 something you obviously want to avoid for as long as possibly. When you have tooth decay, sensitivity is sure to follow as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. Root canal<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the crown on a tooth breaks off, then you may need a procedure done in the dentist&#8217;s office called a root canal. It&#8217;s a common (and not-great) procedure often performed on young adults. It involves removing\u00a0 the root of the tooth, which helps reduce sensitivity and pain. A new crown is then placed on top.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5. TMJ disorder<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TMJ disorder is another condition affecting both older and younger people. This condition affects the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opencare.com\/blog\/jaw-pain-8-top-causes-and-what-you-should-do-if-your-mouth-aches\/\">jaw<\/a>, where a crackling sound in the jaw can be heard when you open and close your mouth. Pain and stiffness are also common symptoms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h3><b>6. Oral cancer<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oral cancer is a dreaded disease, and yet common. A dentist can detect early signs of oral cancer and provide an appropriate treatment plan to prevent cancer from growing and spreading.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The role of your dentist<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People looking to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.opencare.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">find a dentist<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> often have a toothache or another problem with their oral cavity. This is certainly an important time to contact a dentist, but it should not be the only time when you seek one out. Everyone needs a dentist they see regularly. !\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Preventative dental care should be something to consider early in life. Even among kids, the earlier regular check-ups are scheduled, the lower the risk of more serious oral conditions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start by making a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.opencare.com\/blog\/how-to-make-a-dentist-appointment\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dentist appointment<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at least once every 12 months, (ideally twice). Then ask your dentist to provide a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and surrounding tissue. A dental cleaning can also be scheduled when looking for a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.opencare.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dentist near you<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. A platform like OpenCare can help you find a local dentist with a proven record.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oral health is something that needs to be prioritized among both young and old. Unfortunately, young people often consider conditions like gum disease and cancer in the oral cavity, something that only happens to the elderly. Still, a large number of adults under 40 experience these conditions. Just remember to understand the risks and realize the importance of a dentist as part of your dental hygiene strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"2964\" class=\"elementor elementor-2964\" data-elementor-settings=\"[]\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-section-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f73b7d2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f73b7d2\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3ab6f21\" data-id=\"3ab6f21\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0ccac3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d0ccac3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Due for a checkup?<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b87420a cta_text elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b87420a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Find a top rated dentist near you that takes your insurance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-ae7ac98\" data-id=\"ae7ac98\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5290808 elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"5290808\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.opencare.com\/?utm_source=organic&#038;utm_medium=blog&#038;utm_campaign=conversion&#038;utm_term=all_++++_patient+++++&#038;utm_content=valuablecontent__opencare_blog__octg\" class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-xs\" role=\"button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Book now<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your mouth is the first stop on your gastrointestinal tract, and what you eat affects the rest of your body.
