Wisconsin Dental Association Recommends Back-To-School Dental Visits For Children.

The La Crosse (WI) Tribune (9/3) reports that the Wisconsin Dental Association recommends children see the dentist to help ensure they have “a healthy and successful school year.” According to the article, scheduling regular dental appointments for checkups and preventive care can help children avoid oral health issues that cause distractions and missed school days. The article recommends children have a brush and floss schedule, adding that “the WDA recommends replacing toothbrushes every three to four months or sooner if the bristles are worn or a child has been ill with a cold or flu.”
