Dubai, UAE (March 29, 2016) – Dentist Direct Dubai, a UK-based expert in dentistry offering a holistic approach to oral health, celebrates World Oral Health Day to raise awareness of oral health issues to students of GEMS Wellington Academy on 20th March 2016.
Dentist Direct Dubai and Castle General Trading, the sole distributor of Philips Oral Healthcare products have teamed up with GEMS Wellington Academy in Silicon Oasis to support the students through a package of learning about the links between oral and general health.
Dr Neil Mitchell, Principal Dentist and Dental Hygienist – Rachael England alongside Henny Arstal have presented a series of lectures that culminated with a poster competition with prizes of Philips Sonicare Diamond Clean and Airfloss Ultras accompanied by an interactive display for the students.
An important event for the entire community, World Oral Health Day is an initiative that contributes to increasing the number of people in the world who never have oral health issues to over 10% of the world’s population. This is important because 90% of the world’s population will suffer from oral diseases in their lifetime and many of them can be avoided with increased governmental, health association and society support and funding for prevention, detection and treatment programs.
It’s never too late or too early to start proper oral health habits. Keep dental health checks regular not only to keep teeth and gums healthy, but to allow important information about your overall health.
