Additional oral health information
- Kids Oral Health: is a website for families to learn about how to protect their children’s oral heath.
- Children’s Dental Health Project: The Children’s Dental Health Project (CDHP) works to create and advance innovative policy solutions to achieve oral health for all children. In collaboration with oral health and child health advocates and policymakers, CDHP seeks solutions to prevent childhood tooth decay, because cavities are the result of a disease that is overwhelmingly preventable. Using the best best available evidence-based research, CDHP engages key players at every level to address the ongoing inequities in oral health and to implement the most cost-effective solutions.

Everybody deserves to enjoy the benefits of good oral health. What better time than June (designated as Oral Health Month) to support policies, programs and efforts that expand access to preventive measures like water fluoridation & oral health care!? #teethmatter #OralHealthMonth
