NEWS RELEASE: CHILDREN’S DENTAL HEALTH GUIDE LAYS GROUNDWORK FOR A LIFETIME OF HEALTHY MOUTHS 

Westchester, NY – August, 2008 Popular children’s dental book, Smile Wide Look Inside, is now available in a Spanish-language edition. The release of the Spanish-language version of Smile Wide Look Inside is timely. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently announced that tooth decay is on the rise in preschool age children. Their report also stated that Mexican American children had a higher percentage of decay in permanent teeth than non-Hispanic children. This book can help Hispanic families and educators to reinforce proper oral health care with their children.

The book explains the often-mysterious dental office visit using familiar terms and visual cues. The author, Judith Dember-Paige, is a dental hygienist who has seen first-hand the need to communicate with children on “their level.” Follow our young patient Nicole as she visits her new dental office. Nicole’s apprehension is alleviated by friendly faces and caring attitudes. Many children have similar apprehension as they suffer silently with dental pain rather than ask for care. Nicole leaves the office with clean teeth and a bright smile.  The book reaches out to children by showing  a dental visit can actually be fun!

This useful resource for both parents and caregivers is now available for personal and institutional purchase. The Teacher’s Edition of Smile Wide Look Inside prepares children to learn about their own dental health using a literacy based approach that incorporates Science, Health, Language Arts and Math, required subjects from  Educations National Standards.  The lessons are designed to be taught in a classroom setting.  The Spanish Edition was created to reach audiences that may struggle with language barriers in their pursuit of dental health.  Contact ABCDEPress.com for more information. 

Judith Dember-Paige, RDH., founded ABCDEPress to provide children with a comforting and informative guide to the dental profession. She is passionate about caring for children’s oral health. Her goal is to help the dental educator and child come together to build a trusting relationship from the very first appointment.
