In some cases, you can take time to decide on a dental treatment. In other cases, if you have a dental emergency or situation that can compromise your dental health, you should make a prompt care decision.
Your Brisbane dentist will explain your oral health situation, including its severity and the timeframe for deciding whether to preserve your oral health and reduce your risk of complications.
How Do I Know If My Dental Treatment Decision Can’t Wait?
Examples of decisions that should not wait include choosing between root canal treatment and extraction. In this case, you have an infection that could spread and pain that may worsen suddenly.
Examples of decisions that can wait include:
- Veneers vs Dental Bonding
- Dental Implant vs Dental Bridge
- Booking your checkup in January or February
In other words, elective treatments can typically wait, but procedures that preserve your dental health often require prompt decisions.
