Say Hola to Summer with New AAP Oral Health Resources in Spanish
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has recently translated two of its resources in to Spanish.
- The AAP/Bright Futures Oral Health Risk Assessment Tool
has been translated and can be used in coordination with the Self-Management Goals that were already available on the website in Spanish. - The AAP Brush, Book, Bed program has a simple and clear message for parents: 1) Each night, help your children to brush their teeth; 2) Read a favorite book (or two)!; 3) Get to bed at a regular time each night. The Brush, Book, Bed poster is also now available in Spanish and can be downloaded online.
