CANCELLED - AUSTRALIAN DENTAL FOUNDATION

Unforunately, due to unforseen circumstances, we have been notified that this event has now been cancelled

Oral health is fundamental to a child’s general health and well-being.

The Australian Dental Foundation is proud to deliver "My School  Dentist" program, an onsite dental service which supports convenient  access to "FREE" oral health care and education to children at  kindergartens.

A child’s oral health is more important than you may realise. For two   in five Australian children experiencing tooth decay in their baby   teeth and one in four in their permanent teeth, it can cause  significant  pain, discomfort and embarrassment. And yet, there is no  reason for  them to suffer. Many aspects of oral disease – including  dental caries –  are preventable and can be treated in their early  stages with routine  dental examinations, preventive care and oral  health education.

My School Dentist directly sets out to improve oral health outcomes   and reduce the burden of poor oral health on children and adolescents,   with a particular focus on lower social-economic, regional and remote   communities. We operate as a fully functional, award-winning mobile   dental team utilising quality mobile dental equipment and specifically   formulated oral health strategies.
