The School-Based Dental Prevention program is a countywide, year-round initiative by the Hamilton County Health Department for children in grades K-8 in Hamilton County schools. Our program consists of placing sealants on children's teeth as necessary, oral health education, referrals, and immediate need follow-ups.
