Without much access to things these children were the happiest children I&#8217;ve ever seen, when we went up and read a little story on why its so important to keep you teeth healthy and clean all the children were very attentive and never once interrupted. I was so shocked on how educated these children were on dental hygiene home care. They already knew that you need to be brushing your teeth twice a day for two minutes and to any dental hygienist\/ student this makes your heart happy. After every child received a toothbrush they all had these smiles on their face that I will never forget, something so small that people in the US take for granted these children are so thankful for (who knows this could be the only toothbrush they will receive for possibly years). I will never forget my experience in Jamaica and all the good we did!
