Third-graders across Pennsylvania combined oral health education and creativity in February during Pennsylvania Dental Association’s (PDA) annual poster contest in celebration of National Children’s Dental Health Month. Those who participated in PDA’s poster contest will have a chance at winning several different prizes.

Three statewide winners will be selected from the entries. The first-place winner will be awarded $500. In addition, the first-place winner’s school and teacher will each receive a $250 prize. The grand prize will be awarded to the first-place winner at a school function. The second-place winner will receive $250, while the third-place winner will receive $100.

All entries for the poster contest must be submitted by March 12. Select only one classroom winner and submit the winning entry to Pennsylvania Dental Association, Attn: NCDHM poster contest, 3501 N. Front St., Harrisburg, 17110. PDA will announce the top three winners in April.
