For my Public Health course, me and three of my classmates got together to create an oral health education presentation for high school students. The presentation will teach high school students ages 14-18 year old, about what is a dental hygienist and what do we do, proper brushing and flossing technique, how nutrition impacts our teeth, and the harmful effects of vaping.
We thought it would be a good idea to teach high school students about these topics because dental care is often left out during their high school health class. It’s so important to talk about these habits that can shape your oral health for the rest of your life, and not “assume” they may know already.
