October is Dental Hygiene Month

dental hygiene month logoThe American Dental Hygienists’ Association is celebrating National Dental Hygiene Month in October.

The theme this year is “Healthy Habits For a Healthy Smile”, which is wonderfully self-explanatory. Here’s some info from their website:

This year’s collaboration will continue to improve on last year’s new NDHM format by providing even more focus on consumer information about oral disease prevention, focusing on community service and the day-to-day efforts of dental hygienists nationwide.

Even though this is about you and your health, if you happen to be in the office this month, be sure to say an extra thank you to your hygienist.
