Dental Outreach Education Program

FREE Dental Checks for Children

Little Chompers is an education and screening program that is designed to teach children about healthy food choices and the importance of oral health.

Our friendly and experienced dental and oral health therapists visit local kindergartens, early childhood centres and schools to provide dental checks for children.

During the visit children will learn educational messages about oral health and healthy eating habits including:

• What to expect from a visit to a dental professional

• What is tooth decay

• The correct technique for brushing teeth

• The importance of regular dental check ups

• Making healthy food and drink choices

All dental checks are voluntary and all participating children require parent/guardian consent. All participating children will receive some take home information for parents and a gift pack to reinforce the messages communicated with their children during our visit.
