Our annual Dental Screening will be held Oct 21st. Permission slips will be coming home any day now so be sure to get them back to me ASAP. During this screening, Dr. Alanna Temple from West Plains Dental Group, comes and does a visual exam of the students’ teeth and then a fluoride varnish will be applied. The varnish will also be re-applied in the spring. Fluoride varnish has been proven to be safe and effective in the prevention of tooth decay. It can even reverse some small areas of tooth decay. Although this in no way replaces a regular dental check-up, it is a great chance to get a heads up if something is going on. If you have any questions please feel free to give me a call at 256-2268, my office hours are Tuesday and Thursday from 9:30-1:30. Thanks!!
