Sparkle has the Smile Factor
National Smile Month 2011 is taking place between 15 May and 15 June under the tagline ‘Smile Factor’ and Sparkle Dental Boutique is helping to spread the message of good oral health in London by organising an event for National Smile Month.
The campaign will focus on putting the smile back on peoples’ faces and help them display their full personalities with the ‘Smile Factor’ campaign – the theme for this year’s National Smile Month. As in previous years, the British Dental Health Foundation will also be raising the awareness of a healthy diet and the link between good oral health and good overall body health.
To get into the spirit of things Sparkle Dental Boutique is organising a food-tasting session in on Wednesday 18th May. By offering complimentary healthy snacks the practice is hoping to teach patients about the importance of a healthy diet. Complimentary dental kits will also be given throughout the month.
Dr Sunita Verma, Principal from Sparkle Dental Boutique says “We are delighted to get involved in National Smile Month and to give a little bit back to our patients. Good oral health is very important and it promises to be great fun!”
This year’s National Smile Month retains the British Dental Health Foundation’s three key messages:
- brush twice-a-day with fluoride toothpaste
- cut down on how often you have sugary foods and drinks
- visit the dentist regularly as often as they recommend
Chief Executive of the British Dental Health Foundation, Dr Nigel Carter, who organise National Smile Month, paid tribute to Sparkle Dental Boutique getting involved.
Dr Carter commented: “We are delighted that Sparkle Dental Boutique has joined the many dental practices, schools, health professionals and community groups promoting good oral healthcare under the umbrella of our National Smile Month campaign.
A good oral healthcare routine can help guard against all sorts of oral and general health conditions from bad breath and decay to gum disease, which has been linked to a number of more serious health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease and strokes.
By promoting good oral healthcare in a fun and imaginative way we hope to persuade more people of the importance of taking care of their teeth.”
