Because 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, the American Dental Association sponsors National Children’s Dental Health Month each February.
Now in its 63rd year, this month-long national health observance brings together thousands of dedicated dental professionals, health care providers and others to promote the benefits of good oral health to children and adults, caregivers, teachers and many others.
Parents and teachers can help kids celebrate and learn more about the importance of a healthy smile. The ADA offers free downloadable information, kid-friendly oral health worksheets and games on MouthHealthy.org, the ADA’s consumer website. Click on the For Kids tab on the left side of the page for a variety of age-appropriate activities, games and videos and presentations. There are also teaching guides that adults can use at home, in the classroom or in other community-based settings.

We
Care About Kids!
We want your children to feel comfortable in our care, and
we take pride in offering the latest developments that make
treatment easy for your children. We thoughtfully teach
proper daily dental hygiene to our young patients so they
can keep their natural teeth for a lifetime. We look forward
to their first visit at age three, and watching them as they
grow and change each year.
It is our goal to have all generations of children grow up
without any fear of dental care. As many parents have told
us, their children are happy to come to our office. We are
here to help you no matter what the age of your children. We
can relieve their nervousness and make their visits a
pleasant experience.
