How Can Periodontal Disease be Prevented?

Brushing twice a day for at least two minutes with a toothpaste that contains fluoride, daily flossing and using an antimicrobial  mouthrinse with fluoride is an excellent daily routine.  Regular dental exams and cleanings are also very important in preventing periodontal diseases.  At regular dental appointments periodontal problems can be detected early  before the gums and bone supporting your teeth are irreversibly damaged.   Prevention is the first line of defense against periodontal diseases.
