Dear Parents/Carers,
Slough Healthy Smiles project have created some posters and leaflets for the March 2023 health campaign for World Oral Health Day - 20th March 2023. Their theme is 'Be proud of your mouth'.
This month they have decided to focus on 'Inclusivity' particularly 'Oral Health and Dexterity' and 'Teen's Oral Health'.
Oral health can be affected by those who experience difficulties with dexterity due to other health conditions, disabilities and age. Assisted brushing and a variety of oral health aids can be used to help maintain good oral health.
