We have three exciting educational opportunities available as part of our community service program:

Field Trips   /   Visit to your Pre-School 
 Visits to Mommy and Me Groups

Field Trips
We invite preschool children, their teachers, teacher aides, and parents to visit our office for a fun, informative tour. We usually begin each tour with an interactive discussion of “Why do we have teeth?” followed by an age appropriate introduction to dental care. We utilize visual aids such as puppets, felt boards and models to involve and engage the children.

The children enjoy spending time in our office. They see the X-ray room and the dental workrooms.  We find that this introduction can lessen apprehension for their first visit and first dental radiographs (X-rays). We encourage the children to sit in a dental chair. We “show and tell” how our polisher, the “tooth tickler” and vacuum work, and how the instruments like the mirror and “tooth counter” are used during an examination.

During the field trip you will meet one of our doctors and have the opportunity to ask questions. We cordially invite your school to tour our office. Please call our office to schedule a date.

Visits to your Preschool
One of our trained staff members will come to your preschool for a presentation. We pride ourselves in creating imaginative, fun, and interactive programs for children. We include information on dental care, healthy snacks and drinks, and dental safety. Topics Include:
          Those Amazing Animal Teeth
          When Will I Lose a Tooth?
          What’s a Tooth Cave?

Visits to Mommy and Me Groups
Our talk focuses on the development of the teeth, the care of babies’ and toddlers’ teeth, nutritional guidelines, and a safe environment for your child. Mommies (and Daddies too!) will enjoy learning pertinent information about when to start dental care, feeding habits, early childhood cavities, and what to do if a tooth is injured. Parents love this opportunity to learn new information and ask questions about their child’s dental health. Please call our office to schedule our visit.

Bring your baby in for an early check-up. For more information visit the Baby and Me Appointment.
