Page 1

Dragon as he visits the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile® of the Ozarks, fondly known as the “Tooth Truck,” to fix a cavity, then travels to the Healthy Smiles Academy to meet Mrs. Grin. Mrs. Grin teaches DecayAway Dragon all the steps he needs to keep his teeth healthy and cavity free. You can be a part of the Healthy Smiles Academy by following the daily steps provided at the end of the book. The Healthy Smiles Academy was made possible through a generous grant from Missouri Foundation for Health to fund the first three years of the program. Missouri Foundation for Health serves as a resource for the region, working with communities and nonprofits to generate and accelerate positive changes in health. As a catalyst for change, the Foundation improves the health of Missourians through a combination of partnerships, experience, knowledge and funding. Through its support, the Healthy Smiles Academy is able to offer brushing tools and resources to 2,400 participants during it’s first three years. An extension of the Tooth Truck, the Healthy Smiles Academy is an on-site brushing program that partners with Springfield Public Schools, local Boys and Girls Clubs, and other organizations to teach students the importance of brushing their teeth and practicing good dental hygiene on a daily basis. The program primarily targets pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students, but has the opprounity to work with a variety of ages through community programs.
