SRBCL 2009 Dental Check-Up
One of the school’s activities for the Nutrition Month is the dental check-up of all the pupils. The yearly Dental Check-Up is one of the most awaited activities by SRBCL kids during the month of July and this school year it was held last July 24, Friday with the school’s dentist, Dr. Roque “Bo” Eugenio at the helm.
Before the check-up proper, the preschool kids were first given a short talk by Dr. Eugenio on the importance of proper dental health before being escorted to the designated dental clinic in the school. Aside from new knowledge, the talk also gave the preschool kids, especially the Toddler and Nursery aged kids a chance to see that there’s no reason for them to be scared of dentists.
Dr. Bo, as he is fondly called by the kids, has an uncanny knack for putting even the most frightened kids at ease. He took time out from his busy dental practice in Antipolo and made the long trip to Dagupan just to be with the school kids whom he have seen for more than four years now.
Dra. Ching Lozano, a local dental practitioner and a good friend of Dr. Bo once again provided the equally able “second chair” during the dental check-up.
