Bright Smiles Program

 

The Three Rivers Public Health Department’s Bright Smiles Program provides preventive dental services for children ages 0-5 years old in Head Start/Early Head Start, WIC, and Daycare/Preschool settings. Funding for this program is provided by the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services Office of Oral Health and Dentistry. The program offers oral health education, screenings, and the application of fluoride varnish from a Public Health Registered Dental Hygienist. Benefits of the program include:

  • Money saved and prevention of future dental problems for children
  • Stop cavities from forming by 38% with fluoride varnish (a sticky, honey-like material applied to the teeth).
  • Referrals for additional dental care
