February is National Children’s Dental Health Month #NCDHM. Our goal during this month will be to provide our youngest patients, their parents and caregivers information on how to maintain positive dental health. NCDHM started out as a one day event in Cleveland, Ohio and has since become a month long, nationwide celebration.
Our goal is to keep children’s smile beautiful now and for years to come. By establishing good dental habits and attitudes at an early age we are setting up our children for good oral health in their future.
Tips to maintain good oral health in children:
Brush twice a day
Floss your teeth at least once a day!
Be sure to schedule dental cleanings 2x per year
Ask your dentists about sealants and how they can protect your child’s teeth.
