It has been reported that up to 20% of the adults in the United States avoid dental visits due to dental anxiety or fear. This avoidance often results in delayed treatment which can cause a relatively minor condition to grow into a big (and painful) problem. For example, a delay in getting even a filling can result in an extremely painful infection if the treatment is not performed in time. The affected tooth may then require either root canal therapy (and crown) or extraction to rid the body of the infection.
