What does this program teach the students? |
|
Our registered dental hygienist
teaches the students how to take proper care for
their teeth at their age. Dental sealants,
which help reduce tooth decay, are
available to those students beginning in 2nd grade,
with parental consent. Preventive Education is the
best defense against disease, and is a learning experience with all ages of children. |
