Discover the power of a healthy smile with a field trip to the National Museum of Dentistry!
An Affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, the National Museum of Dentistry is renowned for its collection of dental-related treasures from the legendary to the whimsical, from George Washington’s not-so-wooden teeth to toothbrushes through the ages. Young children can discover good oral health habits in the interactive MouthPower® laboratory, and science-based exhibits allow middle- and high-school students to explore saliva, forensics, and bioengineering, as well as career possibilities in the world of dentistry.
A visit to the National Museum of Dentistry is a fascinating, fun, smile-inspiring experience where students learn the important role oral health plays in a healthy life. Hands-on programs and interactive exhibits offer educational activities that meet national education standards in health, science, social studies, and language arts.
