Make sure you take your child to the doctor for an annual
checkup. An annual physical exam aims to ensure your
child is healthy and fit before going back to school. It is
also a good time to update any prescriptions and have
medicine or other forms signed by your child’s doctor
if required. Chat to your child regularly to make sure he
or she is feeling well. Bonitas offers various benefits for
consultations for children. Take your child for a dental checkup twice a year to make
sure everything is in order with their teeth.

Visiting the dentist is not a choice. Teach your children
that the dentist will help them prevent cavities and
take care of their teeth so that their pearly whites will
stay strong for years to come. Bonitas covers a dental
checkup once every six months on most plans.
