Early childhood tooth decay (cavities) is the most common chronic childhood disease. It hurts... and it affects a child’s ability to eat, sleep, play, learn and feel self-confident. Fortunately, it’s also simple and inexpensive to prevent!
Tooth Talk is an easy-to-use website that gives childcare providers, parents and healthcare and other professionals working to ensure kids’ good health the latest information on improving young children’s dental health.
A collaboration of UNC-CH School of Dentistry and the NC Division of Public Health Oral Health Section, this website is a clearinghouse of good tips, resources parents will love, up-to-date expert answers to frequently asked questions and super-short, super-helpful videos designed to help you support parents in protecting kids’ healthy smiles.
Tooth Talk is part of the Brushing Is Fun, Start By Age 1 initiative, and is funded by a grant from The Duke Endowment.
