DentalOne comes To Your Child Care Centre
DentalOne is delighted to offer local child care centres a day of fun and interactive learning about oral hygiene. Our passionate team, including an Oral Health Therapist (OHT) and Dental Assistants, will demonstrate to children how to care for their teeth and teach correct oral hygiene practices. The two-hour session includes engaging activities such as reading the picture book “Dr. Rabbit Meets a Brushalotamus” to help children learn about beneficial and harmful foods for their teeth. The OHT and Dental Assistant will present a poster illustrating proper oral hygiene, followed by an interactive demonstration on a large tooth model where each child can practice their new skills. After the presentations, the OHT will conduct individual check-ups, providing a dental report to parents/guardians. At the end of the visit, our team will distribute gift packs with DentalOne keyrings and information on caring for baby teeth and what to expect as their child grows.
The Importance of Prevention
Our primary teeth are critical to the alignment of our adult teeth, hence why we want to keep them until it is time for them to come out. If cavities and infections are caught early on we can prolong the life of the tooth. By having our team come to your childcare center we can prepare the children on what to expect when coming into a dental clinic.
