Feliz Mes Nacional de la Salud Dental Infantil! No comparta cucharas o tazas con los bebés. Los gérmenes que producen las caries pueden transmitirse a los bebés
Happy National Children's Dental Health Month! Do not share spoons or cups with babies. The germs that cause cavities can be passed on to babies.
Drinking water with fluoride helps keep our teeth healthy by reducing cavities! Most tap water and filtered water has fluoride in it. If you drink bottled water, check to make sure it includes fluoride. Toothpaste with fluoride helps too! SmileCalifornia.org
If you’re pregnant please see the dentist at least once during your pregnancy. If you have Medi-Cal, your dental care is covered through your pregnancy and for 60 days past the birth of your baby. This includes exams, teeth cleaning, fluoride varnish.

Schools are out so kids may need a new routine. Remind them to brush their teeth in the morning and before bed, two minutes each time.
Also, remind them to floss their teeth each day.
You can make it fun by playing a song!
