Upcoming School Presentations...

As you all know, February is "Children's Dental Health Month".  Everyone in the office is getting excited. Jon and Lance are skipping down the hall and Breann is so excited she is thinking about pushing back the due date of her first child.  Ok ok ok.. that last part may not be true.  In all seriousness February is an important month to Dr. Hansen and our entire staff.  It is the time of year Dr. Hansen likes to give back to the kids in our community by teaching them something he knows a lot about, dental health!

In February Dr. Hansen and members of our staff go to local elementary schools and do a 30 minute (give or take) presentation on the importance of brushing and good oral hygiene.  We bring in tons of props, a giant toothbrush, show an awesome video and answer as many questions as we can about teeth!  The kids love it almost as much as we do.  Last year we went to 6 schools and saw just under 1300 students.  THIS YEAR... we already have 1150 students scheduled and are trying to reach our goal of 2000!!!! =)

Today we received a shipment of 2000 red "Hansen Orthodontic" pencils that will be placed in a goodie bag for each student in attendance. The custom toothbrushes, toothpaste, smoothie cards, stickers and game sheets will be added as they arrive. Stay tuned and we will keep you posted on how the preparations are coming. 

HAVE A GREAT DAY!
