Healthy Kids,

Healthy Minds!

As part of the ”Healthy Kids, Healthy Mind” initiative, and the School - Based Oral Health Program, licensed dentists will be coming to your child’s school in the near future to provide a DENTAL EXAM, SCREENING, DENTAL CLEANING,  GEL FLUORIDE TREATMENT and  apply DENTAL SEALANTS (AS NEEDED) at NO COST to student or their families in the school.   Dental sealants, in addition to regular brushing and flossing, protect our child’s teeth from DECAY.  Sealants are thin, plastic coatings put on the tops of the back-teeth to SEAL OUT food and germs.  Sealants are applied on teeth that appear not decayed, and they don’t hurt.  PROGRAM SERVICES DO NOT   INCLUDE DRILLING OR SHOTS!
