Celebrate National Children's Dental Health Month!



Kudos to the parents and grandparents out there that work very hard to ensure your child has many opportunities to develop through his formative years. Parenting is not easy; if someone says it is, they likely don't have children. 

The American Dental Association has declared February to be National Children's Dental Health month. We associate February with cupid, hearts, love, etc. Who more do we give our hearts and love to than our children and posterity?

Join us this month as we focus on the little ones in our lives. We will share Tuesday Tips and Friday Fun facts each week this month that you can share with your children. Involving them in their oral health care lays a solid foundation for good habits and great health down the road. 

You've heard it said that people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. This includes our children. By setting a good example yourself of oral hygiene routines, and making it fun and interesting will pique your child's curiosity. We want to get you off on the right foot by sharing fun ideas and activities all month long. Even if you don't have children living in your home, grandparents can be an excellent resource in developing lifelong oral hygiene habits.

Here is a free printable calendar that children can hang up in a visible place where they brush their teeth. They can color each month differently




Join us this month in the celebration! If you have any concerns about your child's oral health care, please give us a call. If your child hasn't seen Dr. Clark yet, you can be confident they will have a great visit. We even have a Treasure Chest they can draw a surprise out of! 

Call to schedule your
appointment today!
