We run Oral Health Workshops for children aged 6-12 years old. We aim to teach the children how to look after their teeth in a fun, informal learning environment. We do this using fun videos, games, talks and activities appropriately designed for the age range. For example, we teach the children how to brush their teeth properly and then give them the opportunity to use disclosing agents to demonstrate areas requiring improvement. They learn about good foods and bad foods and the effects of poor diet and poor oral hygiene. We also run a couple of competitions involving the children demonstrating what they have learnt during the workshop and this gives them the opportunity to win relevant dental products.
