What comes to mind when you think of February? Most people probably think of Valentine’s Day, hearts, and candy (all very good things!), but at Kids Smiles we think of healthy teeth and bright smiles in honor of National Children’s Dental Health Month. What began as a single day observance roughly 30 years ago by the American Dental Association, the focus on children’s dental health has grown into a month long campaign to raise awareness about the importance of childhood dental health through events and activities for families across the country.

This year Kids Smiles’ focus during National Children’s Dental Health Month will be “29 Days of giggles and grins, where we plan to have special events spread throughout the month, as well as a fun fact about teeth every day! This is culminated by a celebration honoring our supporters at the end of the month. Please check back for details as February approaches or ask us how you can participate at any time!
