The Smile of a Lifetime Starts Now: The goal of this program is to address the national vaping and HPV epidemics amongst America’s youth by providing oral health education and resources for students, which will encourage them to be proactive in their own health and making positive lifestyle choices that have significant impacts both now and in the future. Through a guided discussion, we will help teens to identify and understand the risks associated with these behaviors and discuss positive ways to avoid peer pressure.
Success Highlights: This program partnered with Caroline County Public Schools in 2019 and has provided oral health education to approximately 2,000 middle school students since then.
