HOW TO REDUCE DENTAL EXPENSE
With two decades of expertise in managing 32 PEARLS®, we frequently encounter
common inquiries on a daily basis, such as, “Why do top-tier dental clinics come with
high price tags?” In this article, we aim to address this and related questions, presenting
you with the 7 key insights into dental and oral care that will resolve your dental health
concerns conclusively.
1. Prevention is always more ECONOMICAL than Cure
We all have heard “Prevention is better than cure”. But in the case of Dental Treatment,
“Prevention is more economical than cure”, is also 100% correct. Because all dental
issues are silent killers like diabetes. Just like diabetes, without any pain, they can
develop silently. And, these silent issues have nothing to do with whether you brush
your teeth twice or not, because brushing your teeth twice is not enough for your dental
hygiene.
Brushing the teeth only cleans the upper surface of the teeth, but what about the
surface between teeth? Flossing regularly is required to clean this surface which is most
prone to cavity. If you are someone who always picks a toothpick after every meal to
clean this surface between two teeth, that means you might be prone to developing
Cavities.
If you are someone who visits their dentists regularly, then upon encountering the
beginning of these cavities, your dentist would do a filling or clean your teeth. So, the
development of the cavity or any Gum diseases would stop.
But if you go on years and years using toothpicks to scrap the food out of your teeth,
without consulting your dentist, one day you will eventually have to visit the dentist and
at that time, you will have to go with the expensive treatment of root canal or implants in
the case your natural teeth had fallen out.
So, the problem of cavities which could have been prevented with minimal expense of
regular teeth cleaning or filling, would now have to be cured through a root canal or an
implant, a treatment relatively much more expensive.
Thus, “Prevention is always more economical than cure”. If you just do a simple search
of Dental implant costs in Ahmedabad, you will be very well informed about the cost
of losing your natural teeth. When compared with various treatment costs for curing
your dental issues, the cost of regular dental visits would seem very small. Just make
sure to choose One of the Best dental clinics in Ahmedabad, and your regular
preventive dental visits will be much easier on your pocket than curing a dental issue
due to neglect.
2. 6 monthly routine dental checkups for all your family members, from youngest
to oldest
As mentioned earlier, preventive measures are required when it comes to dental issues.
At times, dental issues arise and develop without any pain. To prevent such issues from
developing further, and to prevent large expenses in the future, it is essential that you
visit your nearby dentist every 6 months.
3. Acquire good food habits
We live in the era of junk food. There are many days when we eat pizzas, chocolate,
cheese, cola, or a combination of all of these for dinner and after going home, directly
go to sleep without brushing our teeth. These sweet and cheesy foods give rise to
cavities in our teeth when they stick overnight on our teeth. Having such food once a
week is okay, but brushing and flossing your teeth after such dinner is essential.
To manage your dental health, you should include fiber-rich natural food items, fresh
fruits, and raw vegetables in your diet as much as possible. You should avoid eating
such sweet and cheesy foods, especially at night, and should encourage your children
to also develop the same habits.
4. Acquire good oral hygiene habits
Just because you brush twice a day, and can crack a Walnut or Sopari with your teeth,
that doesn’t mean you don’t need to visit the dentist. Flossing is an important aspect of
teeth cleaning, that cleans the most cavity-prone surface between two teeth. If you want
to acquire good oral hygiene habits and want to know about the proper technique to
clean your teeth completely, you can check out the YouTube channel of 32 PEARLS®

5. Don’t wait for pain or problem to develop; reach out to your dentist in earlier
stages
Our teeth are one such organ that everyone takes very lightly. If there is a problem in
any other organ, you would become alert immediately and go to the doctor. But if there
is any discomfort or pain in our teeth, it takes us months before we finally make an
appointment with the dentist. In these months, as discussed earlier, our problem goes
from prevention to cure stage and the expense increases four-fold.
We need to change our mentality that teeth are not that important. Because the truth is:
“teeth are the most important organ of our body. All the nutrition that every other organ
requires, comes through teeth. If your teeth are not in their best condition, and if you
cannot chew properly, then food and nutrition will not assimilate fully into your body. The
unchewed food would give rise to indigestion, and this indigestion would be the reason
for other issues affecting other organs.”
6. Find out the best Dental Team for your family
If you want to prevent spending more money on a single dental issue multiple times, it is
important to consult a clinic, where specialist dentists for every issue are present at a
single spot only, so the root cause of your issue is detected precisely and you can save
money and time by getting rid of the problem at once. It is also important to consider the
hygiene of the clinic you are visiting so that you don’t come back carrying some other
infection after visiting the clinic.
If you have elders and children at home, then finding a family clinic near your home is
also important. Because, that way, you can book the appointment of your family at once
and also save time as compared to individual dental visits of family members. If you are
looking for a family Dental clinic in Ahmedabad or a Dental clinic in Gujarat, then we
at 32 PEARLS® are always eager to cater to more and more families in their dental
health journey.
If you are concerned about timings; we also have night appointment slots for working
professionals.
7. Don’t consider required dental treatment as an “expense”, instead consider it
as an “investment”
As discussed earlier, teeth health is an important factor in maintaining the overall health
of all organs. When your teeth health suffers, overall health also suffers. So, dental
treatment is always an investment, for all organs and overall health.
