The Real Tooth Fairies Partner With Dentists to Promote Tooth-brushing in National Children’s Dental Health Month
Wilmington, NC (PRWEB) February 14, 2014 -- February has been designated National Children’s Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of oral health. Developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental visits are two important components in helping children get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums. The Real Tooth Fairies and a select group of dentists have partnered to reach out to millions of girls around the world.
The cornerstone of the oral health program features the visually rich and entertaining webisode: “How to Brush.” The webisode, which teaches girls brushing techniques with humor and giggles, is a captivating way for kids to learn how to brush so they have healthy teeth. It can be viewed live on the website or watched as a video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtWozvmZsBQ.
In true interactive fashion, which is the hallmark of the Real Fairyland world, girls who have registered for a free membership can see their own Earthie Girl avatar fully animated as the star of the “How to Brush” webisode. The avatar or “Me Doll” as she is called, will be talking with the Real Tooth Fairy stars of the show, wearing the outfit that the girl has customized for her own Me Doll.
Girls find lots of tooth care fun in their personalized “My Lost Tooth Garden.” This is a magical garden where they grow a dancing musical Virtue Flower for each lost tooth. Each lost tooth brings them a new Virtue like, patience, listening, teamwork, sharing, and gratitude. In addition to watching the “How To Brush: webisode at the Lost tooth Garden, Earthie Girls can also print a weekly tooth-brushing chart to check off twice a day.
Families from coast to coast can search for an Official Real Tooth Fairy Dentist in their area. The Official Real Tooth Fairy Dentists are part of a network of special dentists across the United States and Canada. These dentists give their young patients official Real Tooth Fairy surprises at office visits, and their waiting areas feature The Real Tooth Fairies award-winning book series. All these Tooth Fairy elements have girls excited to go to their next dental appointment.
“We’re thrilled with the success of the dentist partnerships,” says Bollinger. “With millions of girls and families who know their Real Tooth Fairy and immerse in our world, The Real Tooth Fairies are the perfect role models to spread the word about the importance of early preventive oral care. To girls, their Tooth Fairy is the ultimate authority on teeth, so The Real Tooth Fairies are a natural source to help families find a dentist who is focused on children’s oral health. It’s a natural partnership that benefits everyone, most importantly the children.”
When the dentist helps wiggle out a lost tooth, the child receives an official Tooth Fairy Lost Tooth box and a tip about asking for a free personalized Tooth Fairy Letter on their pillow. All the Official Real Tooth Fairies treasures found in the dentist office have girls saying they can’t wait for their next dental appointment.
“We’ve created a total experience from The Real Tooth Fairies world to an Official Real Tooth Fairy Dentist and back,” Bollinger says. “And along the way, the children are involved in character-building activities and engaging games in Tooth Fairy online world, discovering the 20 Lost Tooth Virtues, making their Dream Trees, spreading kindness, and staying healthy. You can tell if your dentist is an Official Real Tooth Fairy dentist by the certificate on his or her wall – and that happy twinkle in the dentist’s and dental assistants’ eyes!”
Children and their parents can find these dentists by searching by city or zip code in the website’s dentist section. On each dentist’s profile, families see what kids like most about this dentist and there is a clickable link to the dentist’s website. Families enjoy seeing a Dream Tree about that dentist that shows his or her talents, dreams, and achievements.
