National Dental Month

February is National Dental Month. The American Dental Association (ADA) sponsors National Children's Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of oral health. In celebration, our students did toothbrush painting in the classrooms and it was a fun activity for everyone!

Here's 3 quick tips to improve your oral health:

• Invest in a good electric toothbrush: They are guaranteed to improve your brushing and oral health. Another benefit is that they have a timer which sets the toothbrush to work for 2 minutes.
• Floss every single day: Never skip a day of flossing!
• Brush your tongue: The same bacteria that causes gum diseases nd cavities will start to build up on your tongue in addition to your teeth and gums. This is the #1 cause of bad breath and brushing your tongue gets rid of this problem.

Lets live mouth smart and keep those smiles and laughs healthy!
