United Concordia provided educational dental health materials to children and teachers in Pennsylvania Department of Defense (DoD) elementary schools as part of the company's outreach initiatives during April's Month of the Military Child.
The company sent oral health flip books and DVDs as teaching aids to all teachers who expressed interest in presenting an oral health lesson in their classrooms. The materials focused on proper brushing and flossing techniques, as well as the importance of maintaining a healthy mouth and eating nutritious foods.
In addition, United Concordia provided each child with a dental health activity book, list of recommended dental readings, and a toothbrush and floss. More than 800,000 items were sent to children and educational professionals at 35 DoD schools, the company said.
