Dental Health
Every child deserves a healthy start in life. Dental health is an important part of overall health. Dental problems can begin early in life, as soon as the first tooth comes in. It is much easier to prevent dental disease than to treat it! 1 in 4 elementary school age children have tooth decay! Dental Services are currently provided as one of the many benefits under the Medi-Cal program. To find out more information, check out the California Department of Public Health - Denti-Cal web site, or check out the brochures below.
