How does it work?

Smilescool helps children to understand the rules about eating and the oral healthcare habits needed to keep their teeth and gums healthy.

Children can have fun at the dentist and learn about what is good or bad for them. Having learnt the rules, we then teach them how these rules apply to them as an individual, and how they can bend the rules occasionally and still be successful. So, they can still eat sweets and avoid the damaging effects!

At smilescool we teach life skills and introduce methods to practise and assess them. Smilescool has invented a unique system – M.I.K.E.S. (Motivational Index for Kids Education Scoring) System. It might sound complicated, but we have designed it so it is easy to use.

Smilescool combined with M.I.K.E.S. System provides the best education for you and your family at the most important time to learn. We call it Lifescool Learning.

Just like learning to play a musical instrument or driving a car, correct efficient brushing is difficult at the start and needs help and regular practice. However, once your child has developed the basic skills, they can clean their teeth without thinking about it and with great results.

Leaving dental care to chance means poor habits develop – these can be masked by the taste of the toothpaste. Once bad habits are formed they can be extremely difficult to correct in later life, giving rise to the huge levels of gum disease we see today.
