a Why Dental Care is Even More Important During a Pandemic by Christopher Zed | Dec 14, 2020 | Dentistry, dr. christopher zed

Over the past nine months, people have shuttered themselves indoors except for when absolutely necessary. The quali cations for what was necessary mostly involved groceries and prescription pickups. Once medical o ces began to once again see their patients, dental practices opened their doors as well. The risk of COVID, however, outweighed the perceived necessity of preventative dental care. For this reason, many people opted out of their regularly scheduled cleanings. The trouble with this safety precaution, unbeknownst to us at the time, was the fact that months of isolation would lead to a lot of depression. The rst thing to fall to the wayside during periods of depression is self-care. Dental maintenance and hygienic rituals fell down the list of priorities. The combination of not being diligent at home and not having professional cleanings has proven to be very turbulent. Home health routines are ultra-important, both for your family and yourself. This is especially true right now.
