February is National Children’s Dental Health Month, a reminder
that it’s never too early to learn about preventing dental disease.
MetLife, a leading provider of dental plan administration for
nearly 20 million people, today announced the addition of a new
interactive children’s game and other family dental health
resources to its free, online Oral Health Library. MetLife's
Healthy Mouth Match Up game and other educational materials can be
accessed within the Kid’s Dental Health Center in the MetLife Oral
Health Library at www.metlife.com/dental. The game and many of the
articles are available in both English and Spanish.
“It is very important to instill good oral health habits at a
young age,” said Dr. David Guarrera, DDS, vice president, MetLife
Dental Products. “MetLife is committed to helping people maintain –
or improve – their oral health and engaging children in the process
is key. Providing easy access to educational materials for both
children and their parents is the first step in helping them
understand the risks for dental disease. As dentistry has evolved
over the years, it is also important that caregivers do not rely on
their own childhood experiences, but inform themselves with the
latest insights about care and treatment options.”
Every article and tool available in the MetLife Oral Health
Library has been reviewed and approved by the MetLife Dental
Advisory Council (DAC) – an esteemed group of academic and
practicing dentists as well as corporate benefits representatives.
In addition to MetLife-produced material, the library contains
articles and information from recognized sources, including the
American Dental Association, the American Academy of
Periodontology, and the National Institute of Dental and
Craniofacial Research.
