Kids Smiles Dental Education –
Grades K & 1 will participate in Kids Smiles Dental Education today. This is Dental Health Month!
February is Dental Health Month -
We need to care for our teeth each and every day of the year. Brush your teeth at least twice a day to help prevent decay and cavities. Make sure you limit the amount of sugary snacks and soda in your diet. Foods high in sugar contain acid-producing bacteria that can cause cavities. Choose snacks that can improve the health of your teeth:
- Celery and carrot sticks help your teeth by encouraging extra chewing. This helps to clean your teeth and gums between meals.
- Eating cheese and calcium rich foods help build strong enamel on your teeth.
- Fruits high in Vitamin C help keep your gums that hold your teeth strong.
So take good care of your teeth and keep smiling!
