A little about me.
I joined the Milton Town School District in November 2022.  I work part-time, a few hours a week, through a grant from the VT Department of Health’s Vermont 802 Smiles Network.  I enjoy collaborating with school nurses to provide dental health education in classrooms, distribute toothbrushes, toothpaste, and flossers/floss, offer dental screenings, provide oral hygiene instruction, refer students to dentists, and assist families in finding a dentist.
New in 2023-2024, we are offering school-based services for fluoride varnish, dental sealants, and silver diamine fluoride (SDF) when indicated and with parent/guardian permission.
