Dentistry for Children and Teens Launches Prevention Campaign for Steep Risk Factors
With the start of a new academic year looming over Atlanta residents, parental focus is currently centered around arming children with school supplies and fresh wardrobes. According to area school officials, parents may need to add their children's dental health to that list of concerns.

Dental problems such as this have been linked to inhibited learning in addition to a range of other issues.
