National Children's Dental Health Month


February is National Children's Dental Health Month (NCDHM)

The American Dental Association (ADA) encourages children to practice good oral health habits.
The ADA offers free downloadable oral health information to provide fun tools to promote the benefits of good oral health. The NCDHM program guide includes easy-to-do classroom activities and program planning timetable tips.

During NCDHM, it is particularly important to raise awareness of the plight of children from low income families, many of whom have difficulty eating, sleeping, paying attention in school and smiling due to rampant dental disease.


Call our office (205)967-4080 today to schedule an appointment for yourself or your children. Here at Thomas P. Cosgrove DMD, PC we welcome new patients!

  1. Teeth are a very important part of our body and we often seem to forget to take good care of it. We only have one set of permanent teeth and they are really vital for our well-being. To ensure optimum dental health, a routine check-up at a dentist's chamber is really important and sometimes emergencies can occur which might require special treatments.
