Abstract
A child’s oral health is an important factor in overall health, school readiness, and even self-esteem. In Iowa, the I-Smile™ program works to assure optimal oral health for children by facilitating access to care and providing preventive services for at-risk children and families. An important partner for I-Smile™ is the Head Start program, which provides comprehensive early childhood education, health, nutrition, and parental involvement services for low-income children and families.
