Celebrate National Children’s Dental Health Month!

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month—a time to shine a spotlight on the importance of good oral health for kids. A healthy smile starts early, and building strong dental habits now can set the foundation for a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.

Did you know that tooth decay is one of the most common chronic conditions in children? The good news is it’s preventable by:

• Brushing and Flossing at least 2x Daily
• Scheduling Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings
• Limiting Sugary Snacks & Drinks

Orthodontic health plays a role, too! Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease, and early evaluations, around age 7, can catch issues early and guide your child toward a healthier smile.

At AB Orthodontics, we offer free consultations to ensure everything is on track. Call us at (412) 828-3223, and we’ll gladly check in on your kiddo’s smile!

A happy, healthy smile is the best reason to celebrate all year long!
