MDS is your source for basic dental health and prevention information
The key to good oral health is to prevent problems in the first place. To keep your teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime, brush and floss every day, visit your dentist regularly, maintain dental work, and eat a well-balanced diet.
Most important, you should become partners in prevention with your dentist. We can provide you with information to help you take the initiative to maintain your oral health. We help you identify common oral health problems, learn what you can do to prevent them, and understand their treatment. We can also offer advice on how to choose a dentist who's right for you and how to reduce any anxiety you may experience with visiting your dentist.
Only your dentist can diagnose and treat dental injuries and disease. We recommend that you visit your dentist regularly, and if you develop symptoms or pain, see your dentist immediately.
While we hope you find this site informative, it should not be used as a substitute for advice from your dentist.
