If children鈥檚 smiles are shining a bit brighter in Kelowna these days, it may be due to the influence of 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 students.
More than 700 children between Kindergarten and Grade 5 received free oral health education through February, as 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Certified Dental Assistant students shared what they have learned through a special community outreach program at elementary schools in Kelowna.
"The highlight of these oral health presentations to the children and families is the great sense of purpose and meaning the CDA students feel after the experience. They are able to link their new knowledge and skills with the community and help shape future generations when it comes to oral health and prevention of dental related diseases,鈥 said Joanne Gibbons-Smyth, Certified Dental Assistant instructor at 香港六合彩开奖结果查询.
香港六合彩开奖结果查询 students created engaging activities to demonstrate the importance of overall oral health and prevention. They were shown how to take care of their teeth and the importance of regular dental check-ups.
The community outreach lands with National Children鈥檚 Dental Health Month in February, and Dental Assistants Week in March.
