# **KEEPING SMILES HEALTHY**

# **Welcome to the DentaQuest oral health quarterly newsletter for families!**

We think everyone deserves a happy, healthy smile. We’re dedicated to making oral health better for all by finding new ways to prevent problems and provide better care. Every quarter, we'll send you information on keeping your family's smiles healthy and bright. Remember, a healthy mouth helps your whole body stay healthy too!

## FUN FACT

### *Tooth enamel is the hardest substance in our bodies! It’s harder than bone and protects our teeth from decay and cavities, but it can still be damaged by acids in our food and drinks.*
