For the past 62 Februaries, the American Dental Association, or ADA, has sponsored National Children's Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of oral health. National Children's Dental Health Month began as a one-day event in 1941 in a Cleveland clinic. In 1981, however, the program was extended to a month-long celebration known today as National Children’s Dental Health Month.

Each February thousands of dental professionals focus on the preventive oral care of America's children. Dr. Pamela Clark and our staff want you to remember developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental visits helps children get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums. Has your child visited Pearland Pediatric Dentistry in the past six months? If not, it’s time to give us a call and schedule an appointment!

Summer is a fun time for all! Kids get to get out of their rigid daily routines and enjoy the time off. However, it is important to always remember and keep their daily brushing routine for the health of their teeth and gums. Have a great summer!

Remember, we want to know what you and your family are up to this summer! Post your photos on our Facebook page as the summer rolls along!
