I-Smile reaches out for dental health month
Feb. 10, 2022 10:38 am
February is National Children’s Dental Health Month, and I-Smile at Washington County Public Health reminds parents that their children can avoid cavities.
Brushing your teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between your teeth daily, eating a healthy diet that limits sugary beverage and snacks, and seeing your dentist regularly for prevention and treatment of oral disease are the keys to a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.
If your child doesn’t have a dentist or you can’t find a dentist that will take your insurance, call our I-Smile Coordinator to help you find a dental home, (319) 653-7758 x115.
