In
celebration of Children’s Dental Health Month, Florida State
Senator Bill
Montford has
teamed up with the Franklin County School District and
children’s dental provider Kool
Smiles to deliver
more than 1500 toothbrushes to students at the Franklin County
School.
Senator
Montford coordinated with Franklin County School Superintendent
Traci Moses, Franklin
County School Principal Jill Rudd and
Kool Smiles representatives to plan the event for students to talk
about the importance of preventive dental care – such as daily
brushing, flossing and eating nutritious foods – to keep teeth
healthy and free of cavities.
The
idea for the event came about this past holiday season when Senator
Montford heard about the need for toothbrushes firsthand from
children in the Franklin County area.
Senator
Montford has long advocated for better dental healthcare access for
underserved communities, both during his tenure in the Florida
legislature and as a former educator, principal and Superintendent.
Kool
Smiles is a leading children’s dental health provider dedicated to
providing dental
care to children and adults with almost any insurance plan, including
State Children's Health Insurance Programs, Medicaid and Tricare.
