Dental Health Week

Carrington College® California Pleasant Hill will host a variety of events offering complimentary health care services in celebration of Health Care Recognition Month. This week, with the focus on dental health, the campus will distribute dental kits. Also, the campus will have a toothbrush and toothpaste giveaway and will be giving proper toothbrush technique demonstrations. Understanding the basics of dental care sets the foundation for lifelong dental health.
