Cleaner teeth await Martin County children
Contributed by: Maureen Zackey on 7/16/2007

Children in Martin County will begin learning the importance of good, consistent dental hygiene thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Early Learning Coalition of Indian River, Martin & Okeechobee Counties, Inc. [ELCIRMO] and the Healthy Start Coalition of Martin County.

Funding from the Alleghany Franciscan Ministries, Inc. in the amount of $5,000 as well as $700 from Children's Emergency Resources has enabled ELCIRMO to purchase and distribute oral health equipment.

Children, birth to 6 years of age, who attend child care centers in Martin County will be provided with toothbrushes and toothpaste. Additionally, instructional puppets and nutritional charts have been purchased to assist in promoting good dental hygiene
