Preventative Dentistry

Due to economic woes, many Americans have been skipping dental care as a cost saving maneuver. While the decision of avoiding the dentist can indeed save a couple of hundred bucks in the here and now, opting against preventative dentistry can end up costing an individual thousands of dollars more in correcting the damage done.
