Children’s Dental Health Month 2022

February is Children’s Dental Health Month

Throughout February Campi Dental raises awareness about the importance of children’s oral health. 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.

We typically like to continue our family’s tradition of educating our community by going into classrooms to speak to children’s classes about their dental health. This year is a bit different, so instead of doing in person presentations we sent in dental goody bags to a few local schools with educational content for the kids to take home and share with their families.

The habits that we as parents instill at this very impressionable stage can be long lasting. We need to teach our children how important it is to take care of their teeth now so when they get their permanent teeth they are prepared. Parents are strongly recommended to supervise children practicing oral hygiene. They must brush for at least two minutes and brush every side of every tooth.

Below are tips and advice for kids of all ages!

Feel free to print our kids brushing chart or ask for one after your next appointment!
