Now that we are in April 2008 when rain season begins and all of the snow has melted away, we are gearing-up for Oral Health Month in Ontario. Tumpane PS students from kindergarten to grade five will be participating in oral hygiene presentations over a one-day period, with Ontario Dental Association member, Raffy Chouljian, D.D.S. and chair of Brush-a-Mania. On Wednesday, April 16, Raffy will instruct the students about how important it is to develop a proper technique when brushing their teeth for up to three minutes, and will ask that each student record their brushing times over the month of April. Upon completion of the program, students will receive a Brush-a-Mania Club Member certificate, stickers and sugarless gum.
Over 150 schools and 60,000 students will be active participants in Brush-a-Mania in 2008!
