Dr. Don S. Moore’s dental clinic, Dash Point Family Dental, offers general dental care to patients in and around Federal Way, Washington. Dentists like Dr. Don S. Moore often see patients who haven’t had dental care in years because they have a sudden flare of excruciating pain, letting them know that they have major dental issues.

Though dentists are happy to help patients who come in with these issues, life would be easier on everyone if patients came in at the first warning sign. Better yet, if patients come in for six-month check-ups, they can ask their dentist about any concerns regularly to maintain oral health.

Dr. Don S. Moore is a dentist with years of experience who owns and operates Dash Point Family Dental with his wife Felicia.

The following warning signs are just some of the many that will let you know that it’s time to start seeing your dentist regularly:

Twinges of Pain

Typically, people wait until they have unbearable pain to visit the dentist. This unbearable pain is usually preceded by slight twinges of pain for months in advance. These twinges tend to go unnoticed. If you experience twinges of pain when eating or going about your daily life, don’t just be happy that it went away. Instead, ask your dentist why you had that twinge of pain and make sure that nothing’s wrong.

Dry Mouth

Dry mouth is linked to hundreds of medications, old age and certain medical conditions. It is also linked to poor oral health, as patients with dry mouth are missing valuable saliva that helps keep teeth healthy. Having dry mouth means that you should see your dentist regularly to watch for issues caused by it and to ask your dentist what he or she would recommend to make your dry mouth less of a problem.

Sensitive Teeth

If you have sensitive teeth, don’t just write it off as “that’s how you are.” At least, not until your dentist gives you the okay to do so. Sensitive teeth can be a sign of periodontal disease eroding your gums. Your dentist can help you combat existing periodontal disease and prevent the disease if it isn’t yet affecting you.

If you notice any of these signs, or even if you don’t, schedule an appointment with a local professional like Dr. Don S. Moore. He or she can help you care for your teeth so that they stay with you for years to come.
