NATIONAL CHILDRENS DENTAL HEALTH MONTH

February is Children's Dental Health Month  - a great opportunity to promote the benefits of good oral health, because developing good dental health habits at an early age, including scheduling regular dental visits, helps children get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.

Royal Smiles Dental Clinic raises awareness of how important it is for children to develop good oral habits at an early age to ensure a lifetime of healthy smiles. The Kenya Dental Association and Kenya Medical and Dentist Union regularly recommend that children receive their first dental exam no later than one year of age to head off potential early dental problems.

Kids' dental care also depends on parents to review certain areas of prevention with their dental professional. This includes tooth decay, what thumb-sucking can do to baby teeth and how to get your child to become familiar with his or her dental office's surroundings. In later years, your attention should focus on the prevention of crowded teeth and healthy gums, both achievable by seeing a dentist at least twice a year for an oral examination and professional cleaning.
