Mobile dental clinic expected at Ettalong next month

A mobile dental clinic is expected to provide free check-ups for Ettalong Public School students during November and December.

The dental van includes portable dental equipment to provide students with dental check-ups, teeth cleans and dental decay x-rays.

The visit is part of the NSW Health Primary School Mobile Dental Program.

The program, which began in July last year with a focus on Western Sydney, the Central Coast and the Mid-North Coast, resumed in Term 3 in line with coronavirus restrictions.

School visits have been prioritised based on the level of oral health risk among their students.
