6,939 dental screenings performed to detect early signs of dental disease.
PPHD’s school-based dental program offers preventive dental care to students. We go to where children are, in schools, to provide dental screenings, fluoride treatments, sealants, education, and referrals. These services create healthier teeth so children can concentrate on playing and learning without pain.
