Back to School
August is here.
That means the end of summer is near and the beginning of another school year is right around the corner.
The return to school is usually filled with great anticipation of seeing old friends and back-to-school shopping. However, this year may look different for many families and teachers as we navigate these uncertain times during the COVID-19 pandemic. It has become increasingly more difficult to find the normalcy we have experienced in the past. Instead of meeting your teacher in person, we will meet them over Zoom and words like distance learning, Chromebook and Google Classroom are the norm.
While we might not be able to check-off the back to school supplies and indulge in clothes shopping, there are a few things that haven’t changed. One such back-to-school necessity is your routine dental cleaning and exam.
Regular dental visits are important year-round, but a back-to-school checkup is key in fighting the most common chronic disease found in school-age children: cavities.
Prevention and early detection can help avoid pain, trouble eating, difficulty speaking and school absences (even if school is at home).
