Brushing Up on Dental Health

Heard about this important topic on the news tonight and wanted to share it with you. Cavities are on the rise in young children, which may mean a trip to the operating room, not just the dentist chair.  To read the full article in the New York Times click here: Preschoolers in Surgery for a Mouthful of Cavities.

Ways to Prevent Cavities:
1. Help your child brush his/her teeth twice a day (this is non-negotiable!)
2. Drink tap water (our tap water has flouride – bottled water does not)
3. Help your child choose healthy snacks and drinks
