LA is hip on teeth

Lights, camera, action! Los Angeles may be known as the movie capital of the world, but did you know they are so 'with it' when it comes to tooth health? LA County has embarked on a massive campaign around tooth health on social media, TV, and radio. Included are great videos and engaging materials to bring the health of the mouth, especially for children, top of mind. 

Here is an adorable video they created:

Hidden Pain

The Jon C Burr Foundation has developed the short documentary Hidden Pain: America's Oral Health Crisis. The film addresses the pain, suffering and enormous cost to the American people of not providing access to Oral Healthcare.   The purpose of the film is to shine a bright light on an issue that has grown in the darkness for far too long.  The film has been distributed to dental schools, community centers, churches and legislative offices in order to educate the public and encourage action. It can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EETIhbiGBI&feature=youtu.be
