The Importance of

Oral Health & Hygiene

Oral health is essential to the general health and well-being of all Americans, and it is a window into the health of the body. Signs of nutritional deficiencies or general infection, and diseases that affect the entire body can first become apparent through regular visits to the dentist. When professional oral care is unavailable, oral disease can cause infections that restrict activities in school, work, and home.

This can often significantly diminish quality of life. Those who suffer the worst are economically challenged households, children in underserved communities, and older adults. Members of racial and ethnic minority groups also experience a disproportionate level of oral and overall health problems. Care2U Oral Health Administrative Services brings oral health services to the people of communities that most need them.

01. Elderly Adults

Our elderly “whole health” tends to often get overlooked in many of our nursing home facilities. Just mechanically cleaning the tongue and palate can help to prevent aspiration pneumonia.

02. Low Income

More than 23,559 children of low-income households went to the ER for a dental related issue in Stanislaus County in 2017 alone, compared to 1.3% of children who went to the ER in all of California.

03. Minorities

Tooth decay is the #1 preventable disease in the world. But for many low-income and minority children, treatment is out of reach. They live each day in pain, lose teeth, and risk dangerous infections.

04. Veterans

Not all veterans qualify for preventative or basic oral care. We know that when the bacteria in our oral cavity is not controlled, it can contribute to serious diseases such as diabetes, cardiac disease, cancer and more.  Let’s give back to those who have given so much.

What Drives Us

Our Mission

We are dedicated to enhancing the health of our communities by breaking the barriers between oral and overall health by delivering diagnostic, preventive, and non-surgical periodontal oral care services with compassion and care to under-served populations.

Make An Impact

The major roadblock to school-based oral heath programs has been the physical distance between dentists and patients. Care2U closes that gap of physical distance by bringing much needed oral care to the patient.

The Impact of

Early Detection

Many serious and potentially life threatening health conditions can be detected early-on by way of oral health exams, leading to earlier care and lower cost to individuals and insurance providers.

These diseases cost the U.S. health system $213.8B a year and $137.4B in lost productivity due to premature death. This means up to 180,806 Stanislaus County residents will be impacted, according to the Surgeon General’s figures.

The major roadblock to school-based oral heath programs has been the physical distance between Dentist and Patients. Care 2 U closes that gap of physical distance by bringing needed oral care to the patient.

Is your loved one cared for by someone concerned about their WHOLE health? The odds of nursing home patients’ dying from Aspiration Pneumonia are 3 times greater than from any other condition.
