Dr. Liisa’s Preventive Work in Kindergartens and Schools
All children have heard of Munchie and Tiny – two clever little creatures who love to sneak between teeth. Dr. Liisa Lill tells children how to keep them away and how to keep their teeth happy, strong, and healthy.
Why is this important?
In Estonia, many 3-year-old children already have cavities. This shows that good habits must start early – so children grow up with bright smiles and healthy teeth.
What does the visit look like?
- Dr. Liisa tells stories about why teeth get sick and how to save them.
- Explains why “tooth breaks” are important – at least three hours between meals so teeth can rest and become stronger.
- Shows how the superhero toothbrush chases away Munchie and Tiny.
- Invites children to try proper tooth brushing themselves.
- Answers children’s questions.
Dr. Liisa is a young dentist who has already seen what kind of dental problems children face. That’s why she considers prevention especially important – so that visiting the dentist feels safe, not scary, and gives children confidence and joy.
What does it give?
- For children: a fun and playful experience they will remember.
- For teachers and caregivers: a great health lesson that supports everyday care.
- For parents: peace of mind that their child learns correct tooth brushing in a friendly and safe environment.
Invite Dr. Liisa Lill to your school or kindergarten – write or call, and we’ll arrange a time. Together we’ll plan a simple, playful class, talk about Munchie and Tiny, and practice proper brushing.
