Oral Health
The new Early Years curriculum, (introduced in September 2021) includes the importance of promoting good oral health of children. A child’s first experiences with oral health can impact on the rest of their life. That’s why it’s so important to teach them about their mouth and introduce them to good habits as soon as possible. It is equally vital to continue to ‘normalise’ dental visits and put them at ease with the role of a dentist as a person they can trust.
Good oral health habits include:-
- regular visits to the dentist
- understanding oral health and how to look after your teeth
- reducing the frequency of sugary food and drinks given to the children
