Our goal is to see kids grow up with healthy smiles and happy hearts, emotionally able to embrace dental health care eagerly. Preventing dental caries, decay, requires some facts to build a healthy smile. A healthy smile helps build a happy heart. Prevention Preventing dental caries is easier than restoring decayed teeth.
A Healthy Smile is Valuable Healthy, attractive smiles can be had by people in all walks of life, whether they be rich or poor, highly educated or not. Pleasant smiles are seen in people who think well of themselves and appreciate the important role that their smile plays in their lives. CAUSE Decay is an infection of the teeth, so when one tooth decays the infection spreads to other teeth and they decay as well.
