The Dental Preventive Clinic will be at Englewood school starting Monday, Sept. 12th. This is a Health PEI program that provides FREE preventative services to children in schools across the province. Children will be screened to assess the risk of oral disease; provide oral health education, topical fluoride, scaling/polishing and sealants, according to your child's individual needs.
Screening: All children will be seen for a two-minute screening to determine their risk of oral disease. If you do not wish your child to have this dental screening, please notify the school secretary or homeroom teacher.
Consent: After the screening, all children will be given a consent form which will be necessary for you to complete and return before services are provided.
Fees: Free!
Contact: If you have any questions about the program, please contact the dental staff at the School (902-314-7666) or the Dental Public Health Clinic in Charlottetown at 902-368-4918 or Summerside at 902-888-8145.
Further Information: Please note that only preventive services will be provided and the screening is not a substitute for an annual dental examination. It is strongly recommended that parents take their children to a dentist for regular examinations and treatment.
