ABCD Dentists key to program success

My staff is proud of our participation in ABCD — they thank me and say they feel good about what we do for these families. We’re educating parents on home care, diet and keeping baby teeth healthy. It’s a great introduction to a lifetime of dental health. And clinically, the skills we develop as ABCD providers offer practical, effective treatment for all our pediatric patients.
Dr. Irene Hunter, Thurston County ABCD Champion

Since 1995, ABCD has trained almost 1,600 dentists, dental students and pediatric dental residents to care for the oral health of young children using the University of Washington-developed ABCD curriculum. Participating dentists contribute to the health and well-being of their young patients and the larger community.

We encourage dentists to learn more about getting involved in ABCD. Contact the local ABCD program in your county today.
