News from the Nurses

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month! This month we will focus on educating our OLG students about the importance of good oral hygiene. Our goal is to promote proper brushing and flossing practices and making healthy food choices to improve oral health! We will be visiting the 1st grade classrooms as well as promoting dental health awareness throughout the school! Here are a few tips to do at home to keep your kids' mouths minty fresh and smiles beautiful! 

• Brush teeth for 2 minutes EVERY morning and evening 
• Floss at least once every day 
• Swap out sugary/sticky snacks like fruit snacks and candy for nuts, fresh fruits, vegetables, yogurt and cheese! 
• Swap out toothbrushes every 3 months or after getting sick 
• Drink LOTS of water! 
• Schedule dentist appointments every 6 months 

To help younger kids to understand the concept of cavities: “Sugar bugs can form nests (cavities) in your teeth when you feed them their favorite food….SUGAR!” And the best way to avoid the sugar bugs is to feed them their LEAST favorite foods like vegetables, fruits, healthy grains, nuts and yogurt or cheese.”
