2022/23 Jockey Club Children Oral Health Project

7th Oct, 2022

Dear parents,

Our kindergarten participates in the Jockey Club Children Oral Health Project held by the Faculty of Dentistry of the University of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, which is giving dental care services to our children for checking, controlling existing cavities, and preventing further decay.

The children will first undergo an oral screening conducted by the dentists. Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) solution will be applied to the decayed tooth surfaces of the children who have parental consent. Individual dental Reports on the child’s oral condition will be sent to their parents after the dental check-up, showing the situation of the mouth cavity and its treatment. Details are as follows:

Remarks

1.     SDF solution has been proven effective in slowing down tooth decay, and safe to use in children causing no significant impact on general health.

2.     When cavities with SDF applied turn black, which is an expected outcome, it indicates that the active decay is stopped successfully. Please pay attention.

3.     Participated children can receive a report of the mouth cavity.

 

Your Sincerely,

Fun Creative Kindergarten
