August isn’t just the month of sharpened pencils, new backpacks, and fresh starts — it’s also home to one of the most magical holidays for kids: National Tooth Fairy Day on August 22!

At Fortune Dental, we believe the Tooth Fairy isn’t just about trading baby teeth for coins — she’s a whimsical reminder of how important it is to care for your child’s smile from the very start. And with the new school year beginning, now is the perfect time to make sure their teeth are healthy, strong, and ready for every laugh, snack, and picture-perfect moment ahead.

 

 

✨ Why Oral Care Matters for Kids All Year Long

 

A healthy smile doesn’t just happen — it’s built with good habits and regular dental visits. Here’s why it’s so important, especially during the school year:

 

  • Avoid missed school days — Tooth pain is one of the leading reasons children miss class.

 

  • Boost classroom confidence — A bright smile helps kids feel proud and ready to participate.

 

  • Protect baby teeth for future health — Baby teeth hold space for adult teeth and play a big role in speech and nutrition.

 

  • Prevent bigger problems — Cavities and gum issues caught early are easier (and less expensive) to treat.
