Never Neglect Your Teeth: The Story of Bob and Mike

They say “Dentistry is not expensive — neglect is.” And nothing proves it better than the story of Bob and Mike.

 The Story:

Bob and Mike were good friends. Both loved their coffee breaks and weekend barbecues. But when it came to dental checkups, they had very different attitudes.

Bob noticed a small cavity one day. It didn’t hurt, but he decided to visit his dentist for a checkup. The dentist said it was early tooth decay — easily fixable with a quick filling. It cost him a small amount and an hour of his time.

Mike, on the other hand, laughed and said, “It’s just a small hole. Why waste money on that?” He ignored it for months. Slowly, the pain came — then swelling. By the time he went to the dentist, the tooth was badly infected and needed a root canal and a crown.

The cost? Ten times more than Bob’s simple filling.
The pain? Much worse.
The regret? Priceless.

 The Lesson:

Neglecting your oral health doesn’t save you money — it multiplies the cost later.

 Dental Advice:

• Visit your dentist every 6 months for routine checkups.

• Don’t ignore small pain, sensitivity, or bleeding gums.

• A simple filling today can save you from a costly root canal tomorrow.

Because in the end, preventive care is cheaper than repair.
Take care of your smile before neglect takes over.
