Make dental health a part of your kid’s everyday routine by adding some of these Nanaimo Smiles approved books.
When you visit us at Nanaimo Smiles for your child’s dentist appointment, one of the first things you’ll notice is that our waiting room is stocked with kids books on dental health. This is no accident! We know how important–and sometimes challenging–it can be to teach your kids about keeping their teeth clean, and helping them to understand why they visit their Nanaimo dentist every six months for their dental checkup and cleaning. That’s why we make it a habit to integrate dental health everywhere–from fun teeth-brushing charts, to our special kids webpage, and of course, kids dental health books. This way, dental health becomes a part of your child’s everyday life, rather than an appointment they only attend twice a year. Read on for our top nine Nanaimo Smiles approved kids’ dental health books!
