Dental Library and Education

Anyone in the county may access our Dental Health Resource Library (click to view library list) which contains a wide variety of educational materials. Storybooks, videos, and mouth & tooth models offer children a chance to see what a first dental visit is like.

Also available, Tubs by Topic, oral health education materials: each tub contains lesson plans, visual materials, take home materials, and oral health supplies. Tubs can be geared to almost any age group and are free to borrow. Tub topics include:
