Glossary

According to the CDC, approximately 500 million Americans visit the dentist each year.

Yet, many children and adults needlessly suffer from oral diseases that could be prevented.

With proper preventive care, however, such as regular checkups, brushing, flossing, fluoridation, and dental sealants, the risk of dental disease can greatly be reduced.
