What your dentist means by “watch that tooth”

What your dentist means by “watch that tooth”

What we are watching

Early wear, a small crack or a change on an x-ray can often stay stable for years.

Why we wait

Treating too early can remove healthy tooth structure, so we balance action with care.

What you can do

Keep up with checks and let us know if the tooth becomes sensitive or painful.
