Cleaning & Prevention
A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental Team to preserve
the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence
of dental diseases and conditions.
Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet. It is
continued in the dental office by the efforts of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote,
restore, and maintain your oral health.
Prevention also includes regular dental exams, cleanings, and x-rays. Sealants and fluoride are also
great preventive treatments that help protect the teeth.
Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy,
confident, beautiful smile.

What is Periodontal (Gum) Disease?
It sneaks into your mouth slowly, sometimes silently and painlessly, and steals your teeth! This horrible creature, called gum disease or periodontal disease, affects over 75% of adults at some time and causes them more tooth loss than cavities do. Caused by plaque bacteria that attack gums, supporting tissues and even bones, periodontal disease may display warning signs such as:
- Gums that are red, swollen, tender or bleed easily
- Gums that have pulled away from teeth
- Persistent bad breath or bad taste
- Changes in tooth position, looseness, separation or mismatch
Factors increasing gum disease include tobacco use, poor oral hygiene, family history, especially crooked teeth, pregnancy, diabetes and certain medications. Not to worry – when detected in earlier stages, gum disease can be treated and even reversed. Let El Paseo Dental Care check your gums today and help ward off that sneaky attacker!
