We have two educational opportunities for preschool and kindergarten age children.

The first is our SHOW & TELL VISIT to your school by one of our tooth fairy representatives.  A highly trained member of our staff will come to your school for a presentation on dental health and nutrition.  This “show & tell” talk and demonstration actively involves the children in a fun, imaginative and interactive way.  To book a “Show & Tell” presentation for your school, please contact one of our offices

The second educational opportunity is for your school to visit our office for a SCHOOL TOUR.  Our school tours for preschool and kindergarten children provide a fun and enjoyable way to explore our dental office, become familiar with the dental environment, and learn interesting dental nutritional and preventive information. 

The tour usually begins with an introduction to dental care and various educational topics are discussed which are applicable to the age group present.

Some dental topics are:

Why Do We Have Teeth?

Safety For the Teeth

Good Nutrition for a Lifetime of Happy Smiles

What’s in Your Drink?

Great Snacks For Teeth

Why Do Teeth Get Caves? (Cavities)

Keep your Gums in the Pink

Our highly trained imaginative staff utilizes visual aids, like puppets and models to make the educational experience come alive.

The tour experience includes a walk through the X-Ray room, which alleviates apprehension for their first dental X-Rays.  Children enjoy our hands on approach to touring the dental examination rooms.  This gives them a chance to take a ride in the chair and view how the equipment works.

In addition to the teachers and their aids, our office welcomes parents to accompany their children on the tours.  There is an opportunity for parents and children to meet one of our Doctors and to ask questions.

To book a school tour, please contact one of our offices
