Raising Awareness Of Good Oral Health To Preschool Children/ Good Oral Health; Beautiful Smiles, Areli Cruz

Capstone Projects and Master's Theses

Children from low-income families may be less likely to receive dental care and may have dental health problems. These children may lack oral health literacy, which may contribute to their tooth decay, and affect their school performance and the quality of life. Therefore, I created a three-day lesson on how to maintain good oral health for preschoolers at the Pajaro Valley Unified School District/Child development Center-Linscott state preschool in Watsonville, California.
