    Access for All Smiles

    Everyone Deserves a Healthy Smile

    McMillen Health developed Access for All Smiles, a dental health resource for caregivers of adults with disabilities. This resource will help professional and family caregivers learn:

    • The importance of dental health for the adults they support.
    • Best practices for daily mouth care.
    • Behavior support techniques to make daily mouth care a success.
    • How to encourage the desires and goals of the adults they support.

    This self-guided resource is broken down into easy-to-understand topics, such as Daily Care Basics and Adaptations and Positions. Each topic includes:

    • Short, engaging videos.
    • Motivational interviewing tips to support adults with disabilities.
    • Short, written modules.
    • Interactive handouts that can be used as added support tools.
