The Pavilion Pre-School visit

Nurse Rebecca and dentist Chris with the goody bags

We were delighted to be invited to The Pavilion Pre-School at ‘The Rec’ in Petts Wood, to give a dental health presentation to the children.

Dentist Chris and dental nurse Rebecca spent time witha lovely group of 3-5 year olds,explaining how to look after their teeth and telling them all about healthy food. It’s always great fun talking to young children about their dental health, as well as answering lots of interesting and amusingquestions!

At the end of the visit they were each given a goody bag, which included a free toothbrush, toothpaste and a fun activity sheet to take home to continue their learning and to encourage good brushing.These were kindly donated by Denplan in conjunction with dental charity Dentaid, which runs BrightBites, a fun and engaging oral health education programme.

In the following days we were thrilled to receive a lovely, large thank you card which was made by the children and included lots of beautiful drawings – thank you so much!

It’s important to us all at Caring Dental to help children learn about their teeth and how to care for them. We’ve put together some useful advice for families about early years dental care here.
