Did you know your child should visit a pediatric dentist? Did you know that people with CF generally have better dental health than the rest of the general population? Are you familiar with a toothbrush that connects to your phone and will let you know if you’re brushing your teeth correctly? Did you know if your CF child has reflux (very common in CF kids) this can impact their dental health.
In this podcast I talk with Holli Seabury with the Delta Dental Foundation, she has a wealth of information about dental care. No one likes to go to the dentist, but Holli gives us so much information that you will find yourself wanting to learn more! Did you know if your child has CF (or a chronic illness) they can get 4 teeth cleanings a year, even if your employe/insurance says they don’t cover it. Holli will explain how this works. Hollie Seabury, EdD, is the executive director of the Delta Dental Foundation. She is committed to oral health equity and advancing dental science through education and research.
