Michigan’s Kindergarten Oral Health Assessment Program
Beginning in the 2024-2025 school year, all children in Michigan enrolling in their first year of school are required to have an oral health assessment (dental screening). Screenings must be dated after 2-20-24 for the 2024-25 school year. Forms are available online (click here) and in the office.

Dental problems can be painful and make it difficult for children to pay attention in school and can cause problems with eating, sleeping, speaking, and even their behavior. That’s why Michigan created the Kindergarten Oral Health Assessment Program (KOHA) -- so that children start school with a healthy mouth, ready to learn. Your child will benefit from having a dental assessment (screening) before starting kindergarten to check for any dental problems that need to be fixed so that they are ready for school.
