All Kids Dental would love to partner with you!
Every child deserves a healthy smile and we would like to help you ensure optimal oral health for your children!
Our goal is to address and overcome barriers to oral healthcare for children through outreach and education.
We want to create a fun atmosphere to educate and train adolescents on how to care for their teeth where it will make a lasting impact.
Our registered hygienist will provide all the materials needed for the presentation, and distribute dental supplies according to how many children are in each class.
Untreated tooth decay in children causes pain and infection that leads to more missed school days and lower academic performance. We believe in collaborating with school systems, parents and caregivers to ensure that children are in good oral health and ready to learn.
Here is what we have to offer:

People with eating disorders can suffer from oral health problems as well. This is because many of the behaviors associated with anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa—such as binge eating, self-induced vomiting, and use of diuretics or laxatives—cause changes in the mouth.
For example, repeated episodes of vomiting, which is common in people with bulimia, release harmful stomach acids that pass through the mouth and can erode tooth enamel, causing cavities, discoloration and tooth loss. Other problems, such as poorly fitting fillings and braces, are another byproduct of such eating disorders.
Brushing after episodic vomiting is actually more harmful than one would think. The best practice is to rinse thoroughly with a neutral solution such as baking soda and water.
