The practice is currently supporting National Smile Month. It is a charity campaign all about championing the benefits of having good oral health and promoting the value of a healthy smile.
\nBetween 18 May 2020 and 18 June 2020, the Oral Health Foundation will be raising awareness of important oral health issues and ready to put a smile on everybody’s face. It aims to make a positive difference to the oral health of millions of people.<\/p>\n
We feel it is extremely important to support this campaign as it recognises that maintaining a healthy smile can be simple but for so many this can be very difficult. Despite the many improvements in oral health over the last 40 years, inequalities continue to be a burden for countless individuals in our society.<\/p>\n
By supporting National Smile Month, we can help reach groups in society where oral disease is far too common. It is a chance to reach people in the heart of the community and help others achieve better oral health by sharing important oral health messages.<\/p>\n
The key messages of National Smile Month are:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Brush your teeth for two minutes, last thing at night and at one other time during the day, with a fluoride toothpaste.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Use mouthwash and clean between your teeth with interdental brushes or floss every day.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Cut down on how much sugar you have, and how often you have it.<\/p>\n
We will be sharing social media and blog posts throughout this month to support these key messages.<\/p>\n
We believe that everybody deserves a healthy smile as a person\u2019s oral health is a crucial part of their overall wellbeing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
