As parents and kids gear up for a new school year, a trip to the dentist should be on everyone's back-to-school check-list, a children's dental provider expanding access to quality, affordable dental care in under served communities nationwide.
Add the dental check-up to the back-to-school check-list. Good dental health is closely linked to academic success, and a back-to-school dental check-up provides an opportunity to review brushing and flossing best practices, as well as identify any potential dental health problems that can be addressed before the school year starts.

Children with poor dental health can face serious setbacks at school, including pain that can lead to difficulty eating, sleeping and concentrating; poor nutrition; low self-esteem; and other health problems. Several studies have demonstrated the link between poor dental health and low grade point averages and nearly three times more missed days at school due to dental problems. Over 51 million school hours are lost every year due to tooth decay, and parents miss an average of 2.5 days of work per year to care for kids with dental problems.

The healthier kids are, the better they do in school. Add a travel toothbrush and toothpaste to your child's backpack and encourage them to brush after lunch. A healthy smile makes a happy student and that's a win for children, teachers and parents.
In between regular dental check ups, Durham Dental Centres encourage an easy-to-remember 3-2-1 routine for children and families:

• 3) Eat 3 healthy meals a day
• 2) Brush 2 times each day (morning and night)
• 1) Floss at least once every day for healthy teeth

Remember, brushing plus flossing equals good dental health, make sure your child gets an A+ in dental hygiene year round.

A lot of Parents ask us, when should our child's first dental appointment be. Generally we say by their first birthday, that way they can get use to the dental environment and everything associated with going to see the dentist. The link below discusses more in depth the reasons to start bringing your child to see us early in their life.

The best time to take your child to the dentist may be earlier than you think, our expert says.
