El condado de Kenosha sigue dando pasos importantes en la salud bucodental de los ni\u00f1os, gracias a los esfuerzos colectivos del Centro de Salud Comunitario de Kenosha (KCHC) y la Alianza para la Salud Infantil de Wisconsin (CHAW).<\/h4>\n
\n

Esta alianza marca el inicio del programa Seal-A-Smile para proteger su sonrisa con los selladores dentales en 25 escuelas del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Kenosha (KUSD) y del condado de Kenosha para el a\u00f1o acad\u00e9mico 2025-2026. Como novedad este a\u00f1o, el programa se lleva a cabo bajo la marca Pillar Health, una divisi\u00f3n de KCHC, y se ampl\u00eda a cuatro escuelas secundarias del KUSD que atienden a 3,260 estudiantes adicionales.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

Acerca del programa Seal-A-Smile para proteger su sonrisa con los selladores dentales<\/h5>\n

La iniciativa Seal-A-Smile es un programa de prevenci\u00f3n de la salud bucodental infantil patrocinado por el estado que tiene como objetivo mejorar directamente la salud bucodental de los estudiantes mediante la aplicaci\u00f3n de selladores dentales en las escuelas. Dado que muchos ni\u00f1os del condado de Kenosha tienen un acceso limitado a la atenci\u00f3n dental, el programa cubre una importante brecha, proporcionando servicios de prevenci\u00f3n, higiene y educaci\u00f3n bucodental esenciales. Est\u00e1 dirigido a estudiantes desde el jard\u00edn de infancia hasta el octavo grado, garantizando que estos servicios fundamentales est\u00e9n disponibles de forma gratuita para las familias.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

El programa Seal-A-Smile de Pillar Health incluye una evaluaci\u00f3n de la salud bucodental, la aplicaci\u00f3n de selladores si es necesario, la aplicaci\u00f3n de fl\u00faor y educaci\u00f3n sobre salud bucodental. El programa llega a las escuelas del KUSD y de todo el condado de Kenosha, incluyendo <\/span>Bose Elementary<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Brass Community<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Bristol District #1<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Primaria Curtis A.

El equipo detr\u00e1s de la causa<\/h5>\n

Las higienistas dentales registrados <\/span>Connie Bevry, RDH<\/span><\/a>, y <\/span>Lacie Dobyns, RDH<\/span><\/a>, son fundamentales para el \u00e9xito del programa. Sus contribuciones in situ en las escuelas locales y el liderazgo de la coordinadora del programa Seal-A-Smile y Asistente Dental, Jennifer Luna, DA, han sido ejemplares.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00abEste programa ofrece a los padres una informaci\u00f3n muy valiosa sobre posibles problemas dentales que podr\u00edan pasar desapercibidos\u00bb, afirma Bevry. Dobyns destaca la importancia del programa: \u00abAl realizar revisiones y eliminar barreras tratando a los ni\u00f1os all\u00ed donde se encuentran, facilitamos a los padres la tarea de dar prioridad a la salud dental de sus hijos. La aplicaci\u00f3n de selladores a los ni\u00f1os de alto riesgo es fundamental para prevenir las caries y, por lo tanto, mejorar la salud general de nuestros j\u00f3venes\u00bb.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tanto Dobyns como Bevry son implacables en su misi\u00f3n de atender las necesidades \u00fanicas de cada estudiante, inculc\u00e1ndoles h\u00e1bitos positivos para una mejor salud bucodental. \u00abEl programa Seal-A-Smile no solo contribuye a la salud dental, sino que tambi\u00e9n introduce a los ni\u00f1os en la odontolog\u00eda, asegurando que adquieran los conocimientos necesarios para mantener una salud bucodental \u00f3ptima\u00bb, afirm\u00f3 Dobyns.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
