Australian Dental Health Week is coming!

Dental Health Week, which takes place in the first full week of August, is the Australian Dental Association’s major annual oral health campaign. Its aim is to educate Australians about the importance of maintaining good oral health. This year it is on 3-9 August 2020.

Now more than ever, with COVID-19 pandemic ongoing, all Australians are taking care of their health. Oral health is very much part of the overall health and wellbeing.

This year the Australian Dental Association (ADA) is sharing four key messages:
•    Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
•    Clean between your teeth daily using floss or interdental brushes.
•    Eat a healthy, balanced diet and limit sugar intake.
•    Visit the dentist regularly for check-ups and preventive care.

This year’s theme is “How Much Sugar is Hiding in Your Trolley?”. For more information about the Dental Health week go to https://www.ada.org.au/Dental-Health-Week-2020/About
