February is dental health month. We will be doing various lessons in class on how to have healthy teeth throughout the month. In addition, here is a free opportunity to help keep your children's teeth healthy:
Duval County elementary students, ages 5-12, are welcome to receive a complimentary fluoride varnish dental application on Saturday, February 25, 2012 for Mighty Teeth Day.
Fluoride varnish is an effective means of strengthening teeth to prevent dental decay. The fluoride varnish is painted onto the teeth quickly and painlessly. All students will be examined by a dentist prior to the application of the varnish. Students must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian who will sign a consent form prior to fluoride application. The students will receive oral hygiene instructions, enjoy oral health games and activities, and are guaranteed a fun dental experience.
The Mighty Teeth Day will be held at Florida State College at Jacksonville - North Campus. The address is 4501 Capper Rd., Dental Clinic, Bldg. A, Third Floor, Jacksonville, FL 32218.
Reservations are required for this event as spaces are limited. Call (904) 766-6573 to schedule your reservation. Time slots are from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
