Preventive dentistry is the area of dental health that concentrates on preventing the onset or progression of oral diseases such as tooth decay or periodontal disease.

Ideally, preventive dentistry is a cooperative team effort between the patient and the dental clinic staff.

Preventive dentistry begins in the patients own home. Regular brushing is the most basic of preventive care techniques. Another important preventive procedure is daily flossing to remove plaque and particles of food between the teeth, making sure the floss also reaches under the gum line. Preventive dentistry involves also the patients lifestyle. For example, eating too much sugar or foods that stick to the teeth can lead to cavities. Tobacco use not only discolors the teeth but can also cause gum disease and oral cancer.
