How long will it last?

We live in a world of consumer warranties. We are concerned about how long we can expect trouble free use of our new automobile. We receive a scheduled maintenance book and in our minds we commit keep up with those visits. We know if we do this we protect our investment and yet we remember that nothing lasts forever.
So it is with our teeth. The trouble is there are no warranties for things done to repair teeth or even replace teeth. The unfortunate truth is that none these treatments last forever. What we hope is that by seeing our patients regularly and by performing thorough examinations is to diagnose problems when small and easily remedied . That is a lifelong process. A healthy diet, regular profession cleaning and a habit of gentle home care all increase the probability of a life time of good dental health. But when things go wrong we are there to help.
