Oral Education:

Oral education involves teaching children and parents good oral hygiene practices to maintain healthy teeth and gums. This education can start at an early age and include topics such as proper brushing and flossing techniques, healthy eating habits and regular dental checkups. 

In addition to promoting good oral hygiene practices, oral education can also address the potential consequences of neglecting dental care, such as cavities, gum disease and tooth loss. This can motivate individuals to take better care of their teeth and gums and make regular dental checkups a priority. Overall, oral education is a critical component of maintaining good oral health throughout one’s lifetime. By promoting healthy habits and educating children on the importance of regular dental care, we can help prevent many oral health problems and ensure healthy teeth and gums for years to come.
