ORAL HEALTH SUPPORT Dental Programs and Resources Keeping your mouth healthy is an important part of your overall health. While Amoskeag Health offers a pediatric oral health program as part of well-child care, many dental needs are met through community programs across New Hampshire. Our Pediatric Oral Health program is offered at every Well Child Check for children ages 0 to 5. During these visits, our team applies fluoride varnish to help lower the risk of cavities. Research shows it works even for kids who see a dentist regularly. As part of the program, your child will receive two fluoride varnish treatments per year and an age appropriate oral health kit with resources you can use at home to keep their teeth healthy. Children who are at higher risk for cavities may receive varnish more often. Pediatric Oral Health Program NH Smiles Dental Program for Children The NH Smiles Program for Children, offered through the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services, provides preventive and basic dental care for children covered by New Hampshire Medicaid. Families can use this program to find a dental home, get routine cleanings, and access treatment that helps keep kids’ teeth healthy as they grow.

No matter what, it’s helpful to have a trusted adult that you can talk to, and your Amoskeag Health provider can be that person. In the meantime, these resources can help you learn a little bit more about your body and what might happen when you have sex.

STIs (sexually transmitted infections) and STDs (sexually transmitted diseases) are basically the same thing! So, why do people sometimes say “infection” instead of “disease”? The word “disease” can make people think of a visual problem, but a lot of STDs don’t have any signs or symptoms – they’re an infection that you might not see. That’s why it’s so important to get screened if you are sexually active. That way, your doctor can help you if you need it. Learn more about STDs: STDs and STIs from GirlsHealth.gov. HOW DO I GET STDs? STDs are caused by bacteria, viruses, and even tiny insects! You can get a STD by having sexual contact with someone who has one. Sexual contact can mean intercourse or putting your mouth, hands, or genitals on someone else’s genitals. Remember, even if they can’t get pregnant, women who have sex with women are also at risk for STDs. WHAT ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF STDs? Bacterial Vaginosis Chlamydia Congenital Syphilis Genital Herpes Gonorrhea Herpes genital Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) Syphilis Trichomoniasis WHAT HAPPENS IF I GET A STD? STDs are all different. Some can be treated and cured. But you can still get the STD again if you have sex—especially unprotected sex—with an infected person. Ask your provider about treatments for your partner, otherwise you could give each other the infection back and forth. Some STDs can’t be cured, but you can help manage the symptoms. There are also a few STDs that can be life threatening without treatment. BACK TO TOP CONDOM DO'S AND DON'TS DO use a condom every time you have sex. DO put on a condom before having sex. DO read the package and check the expiration date. DO make sure there are no tears or defects. DO store condoms in a cool, dry place. DO use latex or polyurethane condoms. DO use water-based or silicone-based lubricant to prevent breakage. DON’T store condoms in your wallet as heat and friction can damage them. DON’T use nonoxynol-9 (a spermicide), as this can cause irritation. DON’T use oil-based products like baby oil, lotion, petroleum jelly, or cooking oil because they will cause the condom to break. DON’T use more than one condom at a time. DON’T reuse a condom. More Information BACK TO TOP PREGNANCY PREVENTING PREGNANCY Not having sexual intercourse – otherwise known as abstinence – is the most effective way to prevent pregnancy. But there are still birth control options that you can use when you aren’t ready to become pregnant. HAVING A HEALTHY PREGNANCY ON YOUR SCHEDULE Whether or not you’re interested in having a baby, it’s important to take care of your body by staying active and eating the right food . And if you ARE interested in one day having a baby, it’s important to talk to your provider about “Preconception health.” Preconception health is talking about how to take care of yourself so that you can have a healthy baby. If you are ready to have a baby, please talk to your provider. They can help you plan and prepare for a healthy pregnancy. You can schedule an appointment by calling 603-626-9500.
