At Dr. Bilski's dental practice, we often get asked about the most painful dental conditions. While pain is subjective, certain conditions repeatedly come up in our consultations due to their severity. Through patient education, we aim to shed light on these ailments and emphasize the importance of preventive care.

1. Dental Abscesses: Often the precursor to a root canal, abscesses occur due to untreated cavities or fractures, leading to nerve infections. The resulting swelling is intensely painful and requires immediate professional attention.

2. Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Wisdom teeth erupting in adulthood can cause significant discomfort. When bacteria invade the gums around these teeth, it can lead to pericoronitis, a painful inflammation that needs to be managed promptly.

3. Periodontitis: A progressive gum disease that leads to bone loss, gum recession, and loose teeth. Good oral hygiene practices are essential to prevent this condition, which is more common than you might think.

We advocate regular dental check-ups, at least twice a year, to catch issues early and maintain optimal oral health. Neglecting dental visits can lead to the exacerbation of these conditions, many of which are preventable with consistent care.

At our office, we not only provide top-notch dental care but also ensure our patients leave with a smile. As part of our protective eyewear policy, patients receive complimentary stylish sunglasses that change color in the sunlight!
