Dr. Lydia David Announcement

PERTH AMBOY – Local dentist, Dr. Lydia David, will provide free preventive and restorative dental care and, if necessary, make referrals for continuing treatment for children ages 12 and under as part of National Children’s Dental Health Month (CDHM). The one-day program, called Give Kids A Smile (GKAS), will take place on Friday, February 2, 2018 and is part of the American Dental Association’s (ADA) annual push to bring attention to the number one childhood disease, tooth decay.

“Giving back to the community that has supported my practice is so important,” says Dr. David. “This program, more than a decade old, will touch the lives of so many of New Jersey’s children who need oral healthcare instruction. I am proud to be a part of it,” she said.

Children who come to Dr. David’s office on February 2 will receive a comprehensive dental exam, oral healthcare instruction, fluoride treatments, and free dental hygiene materials including toothbrushes, floss and toothpaste. Parents must make an appointment in order for their child to be treated. Call Dr. David’s office at 732-826-0210 to set up a visit.

Last February, in New Jersey alone, nearly 3,000 children visited 121 sites across the state, including private dental offices like Dr. David’s. In NJ GKAS is supported by Colgate, Henry Schein Dental, Delta Dental of NJ and private donations.

Dr. Lydia David has been practicing dentistry for more than 37 years here in Perth Amboy. Her practice, Dr. Lydia David, is located at 325 State St., Perth Amboy, NJ 08861.
