Why is it important to brush our teeth frequently and what does flossing do?  These are some of the questions that were answered by a group of students from the Dental Assisting Program at the Delaware Area Career Center.  They visited first graders at Huber Ridge Elementary School on February 21 to share good hygiene tips.  Their appearance was timely as each February, the American Dental Association sponsors National Children's Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of oral health. The organization encourages developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental visits, which help children get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.
