If you have children, you know how difficult it can be to instill in them optimal dental habits. That’s why the American Dental Association has enlisted the help of Hermey the Elf from the beloved Christmas TV special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer to help educate children while remaining playful and fun.

Hermey’s Healthy Teeth Checklist along with a number of other activities are available for download from the ADA’s website. These resources can prove invaluable when working with children to help develop oral health habits that will last a lifetime.
