Open Wide: An Inside Look Into Oral Health Books for Children by an Interprofessional Review Team (MAC/MLA 2014)
Abstract
Objective: Tooth decay affects children in the U.S. more than any other chronic infectious disease. To encourage healthy oral care habits in children, increase the oral health literacy of both child and caregiver, and to develop reading skills, a list of recommended oral health books for children was developed by an interprofessional team of reviewers for use by dentists and dental hygienists, pediatricians, nurses, librarians, and early childhood teachers.Description
This poster was presented at the Mid-Atlantic Chapter of the Medical Library Association (MAC/MLA) meeting on October 2014. A later version of a poster with the same title was presented at the Medical Library Association (MLA) Meeting and Exhibits May 2015.Keyword
