World Oral Health Day
In the spirit of World Oral Health Day (WOHD) on Wednesday 20th March we shared a range of oral health awareness tips and toolkits with the MENA team.
Oral Health is at the top of Dentsply Sirona’s wellness focus as we aim to provide the best service, awareness and education to our customers.
What is World Oral Health Day (WOHD)?
WOHD is an international day to celebrate the benefits of a healthy mouth and to promote worldwide awareness of the issues surrounding oral health and the importance of maintaining oral hygiene to everyone of all ages. This year, the theme for WOHD 2019 is ‘Say Ahh: Act on Mouth Health’ and aims to encourage people to make the connection between their oral health and their general health and wellbeing.
The campaign also encourages oral health professionals to educate their patients about the benefits of oral health and wellbeing. In addition, the campaign aims to secure commitment from policymakers to address oral disease burden and work towards ways to integrate oral health into policies that address other noncommunicable diseases.
Take care of your oral health to protect your mouth and body!
