World Oral health day - top tips

Ahead of World Oral Health day on 20th March we are helping raise awareness of how best to look after the health of your mouth.

Oral diseases are a major health concern and negatively impact people throughout their lives.

World Oral Health Day aims to empower people with the knowledge, tools and confidence to secure good oral health.
