The SFDS Community Dental Health Committee advances dental health and oral health education through numerous programs and volunteer efforts, including the Annual Children’s Poster Contest. Our theme for the 47th Annual 2023 Poster Contest is  “Brush and Floss for a Healthy San Francisco Smile".  Each year the Poster Contest is open to all San Francisco public and private kindergarten through 5th grade students.

The contest, held every February during National Children’s Dental Health Month, facilitates learning about dental health through an artistic means of inspiration and expression.  In elementary schools throughout the city, imagination and imagery abound as children reveal their talents.

By recognizing the value of community, education, and bringing it all together with fun, color, and a little competition, everyone enjoys the benefits of helping young people learn the importance of proper dental hygiene. 

We want to thank our sponsors and benefactors who make this annual event possible: Pacific Dugoni School of Dentistry and Northern California Practice Sales.
