Tooth Tips For Traveling

Louis & Dominic Vitangeli DDS Tooth Tips For Traveling

If you live in the Dayton area and are planning to take a vacation or business trip soon, I recommend you coordinate your dental care with your travel schedule. It’s always a good idea to have a checkup with your Englewood dentist prior to leaving on long vacations, especially if your trip is taking you to developing areas without good dental care options. This quick checkup will help you be sure that your mouth is ready to travel.

Another critical consideration; if you have any dental procedures scheduled before you leave, discuss it with your Englewood dentist. A large number of dental procedures are actually surgical procedures. This means that your body will need more time to heal than you may realize.

In addition, make sure you are aware of any necessary follow-up appointments with your Englewood dentist or orthodontist before you schedule a vacation.

We are Drs. Lou and Nick Vitangeli. Our Englewood practice offers exceptional dental care to our valued patients, including:
