It is the last day today of the Smile Month Campaign 🦷 ✨
🦷 Around one-in-four children in the UK still experience tooth decay, and tooth extraction remains one of the leading causes of hospital admission among young children.
🦷 That’s why Smile Month is shining a spotlight on the importance of creating positive oral health habits from an early age.
🦷 Parents and carers can support healthy smiles by:
🦷 Encouraging twice-daily brushing with a fluoride toothpaste.
🦷 Supervising brushing until at least age seven.
🦷 Reducing sugary snacks and drinks between meals.
🦷 Keeping brushing routines consistent and enjoyable.
🦷 Attending regular dental check-ups.
