In celebration of National Children’s Dental Health Month, the American Dental Association is urging kids to “Join the Super Smile Team,” by brushing two minutes, twice a day. As a member of the American Dental Association, Artistic Dental is offering parents and kids access to fun activity sheets and games that encourage dental health. “I have two small daughters, and I know how important it is to make toothbrush time fun,” Dr. Dougherty said. “Parents can do that by playing or singing songs or making up stories. Anything that makes those two minutes fly by.” Dr. Dougherty says it’s also important that kids feel good about getting their teeth cleaned. As a dentist with many young patients, Dr. Dougherty works hard to make sure kids’ early experiences in the dentist’s chair are fun and positive. Dr. John Dougherty has more than 20 years of experience working as a cosmetic dentist. Artistic Dental is located in the Biltmore area of Central Phoenix at 2333 E. Campbell Avenue.
