Remington College-Cleveland West Campus Holds “Safe Smiles” Event on June 9th
No-cost event features dental health advice and family activities
Cleveland, Ohio – (May 16, 2011) – Remington College-Cleveland West Campus will provide complimentary “Toothprint” services, dental health tips and family activities at an event called Safe Smiles.
The event will be held on Thursday, June 9th, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Parents can take advantage of complimentary Toothprint services for their children. The Toothprint is a special child identification device that records both bite characteristics and DNA information. Parents receive a wafer with the information imprinted on it that serves as a permanent record like a fingerprint. In addition to the DNA sample, the saliva scent on the wafer can be used by tracking dogs in the event of a missing child.
The Toothprint procedure takes only a few minutes and children as young as 3-4 years of age are usually able to provide an acceptable imprint.
Parents will also find tips on proper brushing, flossing and overall dental health.
Students and staff from the Remington College Dental Assisting Program will be hosting the event.
The Remington College Dental Assisting Program is a diploma program that can be completed in as little as eight months. It is designed to cover a variety of topics, including oral anatomy, oral radiology and other specific dental procedures for people interested in pursuing entry-level positions as dental assistants1.
Remington College-Cleveland West Campus is located at 26350 Brookpark Road in North Olmsted.
