Attending scheduled dental appointments is essential for maintaining good oral health, as regular check-ups allow dentists to detect and treat issues such as decay, gum disease, or infections before they become more serious and costly to manage.
Keeping appointments also helps ensure continuity of care and supports preventive treatment, which can reduce discomfort and the need for complex procedures later.
However, if a patient is feeling unwell, it is important that they contact the dental practice to cancel or reschedule their appointment rather than attending while sick.
This helps protect the health and safety of dental staff and other patients, prevents the spread of illness, and allows the practice to offer the appointment slot to another patient in need of care.
