Aside from our dental health blog, we love to participate in local events and teach kids how to take care of their teeth! We believe that empowering children to protect their own health is key for lifelong success. If you are a teacher or member of a school, day care center, co-op group, or religious organization and would like us to come talk about dental health, just send us a message. We have also participated in local events like the CASA Superhero Run in the past and are open to more Austin-based giving opportunities.
