Hispanics Placing Their Oral Health at Risk by Cutting Back on Routine Dental Care
Date:5/26/2009

ush your teeth twice a day, with a soft-bristled brush. The size and shape of your brush should fit your mouth, allowing you to reach all areas easily.
  • When choosing any dental product, like your toothpaste, look for the American Dental Association Seal of Acceptance, an important symbol of a dental product's safety and effectiveness.
  • Cleaning between the teeth once a day with floss or interdental cleaners removes plaque from between the teeth, areas where the toothbrush can't reach. This process is essential in preventing periodontal (gum) disease.

    • Crest Pro-Health is the first and only toothpaste with the American Dental Association Seal of Approval to help protect these areas dentists check most: cavities, gingivitis, plaque, stain, sensitivity and breath. Crest Pro-Health uses a Polyfluorite System(TM), consisting of therapeutic antibacterial fluoride and ActivClean Crystals(TM) for cleaning.

    "It is unfortunate to see that, due to the current financial situation, many Hispanics have had to forgo their visits to the dentist, but they should know that investing pennies a day on the proper toothpaste can lower the risk of potential oral health problems in the future. We hope to encourage members of the Hispanic community to maintain good dental care habits at home so they can have a healthy, beautiful smile," said Anelsie Ramos, External Relations Manager for P&G.
