Lesson Plans

An instructor discussing a lesson plan with kids.

Talking with children about their oral health can be a rewarding activity for both you and you students. The ADA believes that it's never too early to begin oral health education and screening. By sharing these sample presentations and resources with your class, you can help educate students of all ages think about and discuss the importance of dental health. This section contains exercises ranging from learning and coloring the different parts of the tooth to more dynamic lessons that engage preteen students on why making smart choices can protect their teeth and health.

Remember: Teaching children good oral hygiene habits early can lead to a lifetime of healthy smiles.
