February Is National Children's Dental Health Month



Each February, the American Dental Association (ADA) sponsors National Children's Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of oral health. Developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental visits helps children get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums."For a Sparkly Smile, Brush & Floss Every Day!" Also, remember to get your dental cleanings every 6 months!


Here are a few tips to stay safe on the field this spring, courtesy of the AAO:
  • Wear mouth guards for contact sports such as baseball, softball, soccer and lacrosse.
  • Wear a helmet.
  • Wear protective eye wear.
  • Wear a face shield to avoid scratched or bruised skin.
  • Be alert, even as a spectator

Protective gear is vital for anyone engaging in tooth or mouth threatening activities. Remember, stay safe and have fun!
