From May 16th to June 16th it is National Smile Month in the UK and this year’s theme is ‘brush for better health’. As well as being an excellent message to promote to your patients, National Smile Month is primarily a charity with the goal of bridging the gap in oral health care in our society.

Inequity in oral health is still rife today. Chronic ill-health in general is more likely to be experienced by people in deprived areas, people of a low economic status, the elderly, or people with mental or physical disabilities. Oral health is not an exception to this. With National Smile Month, you can help to improve oral health for everyone.
