## Caption

Despite being preventable, tooth decay is one of the most common chronic diseases among youth in the U.S. Good oral health allows children to eat, speak, laugh, and learn more as they grow. The Oral Health Program created Healthy Teeth. Healthy Baby., a community-centered initiative, to provide oral health resources and education. Healthy Teeth. Healthy Baby. focuses on needs during pregnancy, for expecting or new parents, and for caregivers of children up to the age of three. Prevention of early dental disease starts prenatally and is most effective in the first three years of life. To care for your baby’s oral health, it is important to: understand the value of prenatal health, check and clean your baby’s teeth, protect your baby’s teeth with fluoride, feed your baby healthy food, and take your baby to a dentist by first tooth or first birthday. #OralHealthMN #ChildrensDentalHealthMonth
