The Future is Bright!

A good friend told me about her first car and how she learned a valuable lesson.  Her oil light had been on for a couple of weeks, and she thought the light meant she needed to change the oil.  She planned on doing it, but soon the car wouldn't run.  Only then did she learn from her mechanic that the oil light indicates that oil needs to be added.  She had run the car almost completely out of oil, cracking the engine block!
You may see where I am going with this:  sometimes we were never taught how to effectively prevent problems with our gums and teeth.  We might visit our dental office only once per decade to avoid the bad news we expect.  I encourage you to take control of your oral health, and become the expert on your own health.  There may be an initial expense, sometimes large, but after you gain good oral health it is easier and cheaper to maintain it.  Then your future oral health can be bright.
