Importance of School
Dental Check-Ups
A child's oral health impacts their overall life and school success. In 2024, a U.S. Department of Health & Human Services study found dental issues led to 51 million missed school hours nationwide.
The good news is tooth decay is preventable! Establishing good dental care habits at home at a young age is important; however, home care alone is no substitute for a dental check-up. Having a dental home and seeing a dentist every six months is the best way to ensure a child remains pain-free and able to focus in school.
