Celebrate Children's Dental Health Month with Peach State Health Plan

Date: 02/14/25

February isn't just about candy and valentines. It's also a special time to show love by focusing on something super important: our kids' dental health! During Children's Dental Health Month, let's take time to highlight those precious smiles and make sure they're as healthy as can be.

Why Children's Dental Health Month is Important?

Having healthy teeth and gums is essential for our kids' overall well-being. Did you know that if dental health isn't good, it can make it hard to eat, speak, and even focus in school? That's why it's really important to start good dental habits early and make sure your child sees the dentist regularly.

Tips for Keeping Those Smiles Healthy:

  • Brush, Brush, Brush: Encourage your kids to brush their teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste. Make it fun by playing their favorite song or using a toothbrush with their favorite characters!
  • Floss Daily: Yep, flossing is important even for little teeth! Help your child floss every day to get rid of food bits and plaque from between their teeth.
  • Choose Healthy Snacks: Go for snacks that are good for teeth, like crunchy fruits and veggies, cheese, or yogurt. Try to avoid sugary snacks and sodas that can hurt teeth.
  • Regular Dental Visits: Don't forget to schedule regular check-ups for your child. These visits help keep their teeth healthy and get them used to going to the dentist.
