A Very Special Dental Storytime
by darla
In celebration of National Children's Dental Health Month, join us for a dental-themed storytime with local dentist, Dr. Bunek. Each February, the American Dental Association (ADA) sponsors National Children's Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of oral health. Developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental visits helps children get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums!
This special storytime is happening this week, Wednesday, February 23rd, 11:30 AM at our Malletts Creek Branch. We look forward to seeing you there!
