Because February is National Ectodermal Dysplasias month, we wanted to help bring positive awareness about ectodermal dysplasias.   Our goal was to deliver pamphlets from the National Foundation to every dental office in our city.   We would like to thank Bountiful Orthodontics (Dr. Feller and staff) for their support of our awareness efforts!  We also included giving pamphlets to

our local hospital new born floor, two orthodontists, two periodontists, two oral surgery offices and two pediatric offices.  At our request, the largest chapter of the Utah Dental Hygienists Association issued a social media post for February.  We updated our personal Facebook pages with the awareness banner.   Margaret hosted a preschool field trip to a dentist to increase awareness for early well child care.  Kids who are diagnosed are more likely to receive needed medical and dental care.  Finally she has a lead on a speaking opportunity at her alma mater school of Dental Hygiene in the state.  We are pleased with how the information has been welcomed!  There is a possibility of future fundraiser for ectodermal dysplasia kids and we looking for sponsors.
