Healthy Teeth, Happy Smiles

Help me give my students dental tools to help improve their dental health resulting in less absences.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kubo's classroom raised $180

My Project

Many of the students I serve come from underprivilege homes. Which means, many times, dental care can fail by the wayside. I am requesting a new toothbrush to show my students how to brush their teeth efficiently. I am also requesting toothpaste so they can all take it home to use. Dental care is not only important for their health but for their overall confidence. Dental health can impact attendance which will create a domino effect in learning. Many absences can be attributed to dental issues.

Healthy, clean teeth not only promotes great smiles but overall great heath as well.

My project will provide students with a tooth brush and toothpaste so we can help prevent tooth decay and the problems that go along with poor dental hygiene.
