As you check off your list of things to do to get your kids ready to start a new school year, there are good reasons why taking them to the dentist for a routine oral health examination should be right up there on the list.
1. After the common cold, tooth decay is the most prevalent chronic childhood disease. Tooth decay can also cause other health problems if left untreated. With an affordable dental care plan from New Dental Choice, you can have the peace of mind of knowing your children’s teeth are healthy. Plus, the cost of the exam is much less than what you would normally expect to pay because of with our dental discounts. Routine exams can also save money by preventing problems in the future that may require expensive procedures.
2. Tooth decay is preventable. You can stop the decay caused by bacteria by making sure your children brush and floss regularly and by taking advantage of our affordable dental care to schedule regular checkups.
3. The American Dental Association (ADA) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) encourage parents to make dental exams a regular part of their children’s back-to-school routine.
4. Children with preventable or untreated health issues, including dental problems, may have trouble learning. Because serious tooth decay can affect overall health, it can lead to problems with eating, talking and concentrating in class.
Back-to-school dental check ups should be easier to schedule during the weeks before students’ calendars fill up with after-school sports and homework. If you don’t already have a dentist, you can look up dentists in your area who offer affordable dental care – from 15% to 60% off – through our network.
Make a dental check up part of your preparations for a new school year. Oral health is an important part of overall physical health, and with affordable dental plans from New Dental Choice, you can save on the costs of check ups for the whole family.
